38th Annual IFA/IBA Joint Conference

Chicago Shareholder Alan Greenfield will moderate a panel titled, "Success Stories." International franchising is no easy task. It can be costly, difficult and time-consuming. Franchisors must navigate a host of complexities, such as determining the best international structure and which countries to enter, selecting international franchisees, finding expert local counsel to ensure local laws are understood and complied with, and adapting the franchise system to local tastes. Each one of these tasks is essential to achieving international success. In this workshop you will hear first-hand about best practices from franchisors who have successfully navigated these complexities to grow their franchise system globally.
