Key Messages for Franchise Awareness Day

Here are four key messages we’d like to drive on Franchise Awareness Day. (Please feel free to bring your local franchisees to government meetings too.)

  • Franchised businesses are local businesses: While many brands are recognized around the country and across the world, the local stores are owned by franchisees who live and work in their communities from coast to coast.
  • Supports that franchised businesses need to cope with the pandemic: While some brands are up others are down we will highlight the supports that franchised businesses need to help them recover from the pandemic.
  • The importance of the franchise business model: Franchising contributes over $100B in GDP, employs almost 2M Canadians and is the 12th largest industry in Canada
  • The unique nature of the franchisor/franchisee relationship: Franchisees are small business owners who are in business for themselves but not by themselves 

NEXT WEEK!

Exclusive to CEOs, Founders, and Presidents of CFA Member Franchise Systems, the CFA’s Franchise CEO Forums are confidential roundtable discussions that provide you the opportunity to discuss critical issues you face with other leaders of franchise systems so you can gain insight and support in your business today and for the future.

NEXT WEEK!

The Franchise Social is a great opportunity for you to network with the CFA franchising community. Save your spot for the upcoming Franchise Social:
