World Franchise Associates organises and hosts International Franchise Forums. These are one or two day events attended by local businesses and individuals who are interested in developing international franchises at multi-unit, regional and country level. We provide franchisors a platform to promote their franchise at these Forums.
We are promoting international multi-unit franchise development to investors in Doha, Qatar and Dubai at the following events.

The IFFF Qatar went well, and received some excellent feedback and comments - see below

World Franchise Associates’ International Food Franchise Forum was perfectly targeted to this purpose.
