FREE FOR ALL CFA MEMBERS
EARN 50 CFE PARTICIPATION CREDITS
Learn about the significant changes happening in the world of Blue Box recycling that will impact franchisors. Under Ontario’s Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) regime, producers, including franchisors, are now responsible for establishing a collection and management system to manage Blue Box materials, and for fully funding that system. If your business uses Blue Box materials such as packaging materials made out of glass, plastic, metal, or paper in Ontario, then you need to hear about these significant changes.
In this panel discussion, we will discuss the changes to Ontario’s Blue Box program and Extended Producer Responsibility more broadly.
The CFA hosts multiple virtual educational seminars throughout the year, featuring franchising experts who share their wealth of experience and advice for franchising success. Now, you can access videos from past events any time for a low price, using the On Demand Video Library. Learn how to franchise your business, adapt your franchise system to the “new normal” post-COVID-19, grow your system to more than 50 units, and more—all from the comfort of your own home and on your own time!
