Want to start a business, but not
sure where to start? Flirting with the idea of franchising? Already
own a business, but uncertain how to expand?
Franchising is the perfect way to acquire a tried and tested
business model, and is ideal for people wanting to work for
themselves, but not by themselves.
Setting the precedent back in February this year, the inaugural
Franchise Show exceeded all expectations. But how do you improve
something that raised the industry bar? Easy. Go back to very heart
of franchising – the USA – and agree that bigger is definitely
better.
Twice the size, twice the opportunities, the Franchise Show is
coming back to ExCel and will yet again be the perfect chance for
fledging franchisees to acquire all the tools and knowledge to take
that confident first step into the industry. Likewise, it offers
exhibitors a rare occasion to bring their franchise to the
forefront of the market and talk to others about the potential of
their concept.
We''re lucky and proud to be in partnership with MFV – without
their experience and insight, the show couldn't be what it is.
Together, with our 12 international partners, we welcomed 26
countries to the show, and are now promoting in 28. Here are some
of the unique opportunities you can expect at the next show:
Over 70 seminars given by the industry's most famous faces and
knowledgeable minds; one-to-one advice from franchise experts; the
Franchise Show Conference, encompassing four one-way tracks to
success for novice franchisees up to seasoned franchisors; and of
course, over 200 exhibitors, who represent only the finest brands
and concepts the industry has to offer.
But don't take our word for it, see
what our visitors and exhibitors had to say:
“Very, very pleasantly surprised – booked for 2010 already” – Garth
Allison (exhibitor)
“The seminars were very informative...the brands very good...I'll
be able to make an informed decision about which franchise concept
to buy” – Jon O'Brien (visitor)
“One of the best shows ever, right place at the right time,
genuinely serious people.” – Eleanor Allum (exhibitor)
“Fantastic show! So many great brands and new opportunities. Great
job!” – Evan Fraser (visitor)

The Franchise Show 2010
Franchising is based on partnerships. MFV Expositions and the Prysm
Group form a great partnership.
MFV are the largest, most experienced, most popular and most
successful Franchise Exhibition Organisers in the United
States.
Over the last twenty years they have perfected the art of putting
motivated, well informed potential franchisees in front of
franchisors.
The Prysm Group have for the last decade run the most successful
Start Up Exhibitions in the UK.
The union happened because of a strong belief that the UK needed a
Franchise Show that would be imaginatively marketed, and that would
evangelise the concept of franchising.
The Franchise Show was launched at ExCel, London in February 2009
to wide critical acclaim.
The organisers, Prysm MFV, are delighted to confirm that a repeat
performance will be held at the same venue on the 12th & 13th
February 2010.
Tom Portesy, President of MFV comments:
“We are aware that individuals will use different media to explore
the massive variety of franchise concepts on the market. Internet,
press and magazine advertising all have their part to play in the
recruitment process. But experience tells us that nothing beats the
intimacy of a face to face meeting. Our job in staging the
Franchise Show at Excel is to provide a forum where interested
parties can meet and ask all the searching questions of each other.
We understand that recruitment
is a two-way process with franchisors and franchisees equally keen
to qualify each other.
Our mission is to attract only serious candidates to the
show.”
