Welcome to the Canadian Franchise Association (CFA) – Your Advocacy Partner!
At the Canadian Franchise Association (CFA), we understand that navigating the world of franchising can be complex, and that’s why we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Advocacy is the cornerstone of our work at the CFA. We passionately represent and support our members, striving to create a favorable business environment for franchising in Canada. But it’s more than just lobbying and promoting franchising interests to government bodies – it’s about championing your success.
Here’s how our advocacy initiatives benefit both our members and the Canadian franchising industry at large:
- Influencing Policy: We work to shape policies that safeguard the franchise industry’s growth and prosperity. Through constructive engagement with Federal and Provincial leaders, we advocate for fair legislation, regulations, and taxation frameworks that foster a thriving franchising sector.
- Amplifying Your Voice: Our collective voice is stronger, and that’s why we unite our members to amplify their concerns and priorities. We actively seek your input, ensuring that your experiences, challenges, and aspirations are heard and addressed at the highest levels. Together, we advocate for changes that directly impact your franchised business.
