About 700 local and international brands are joining this year’s Franchise Asia Philippines Expo, giving Filipinos a myriad of options for new business concepts.
PFA chairman Chris Lim said Franchise Asia Expo 2024 would have a wider audience featuring exhibitors from Korea, Singapore, Thailand, the US and other countries.
“FAP will provide local entrepreneurs with access to a wide array of business models and strategies from across the globe. There’s even a concept that offers the possibility of getting a US investor visa,” he said.
The expo will also feature “highly franchiseable concepts” or potential new ventures seeking franchisees and “business solution providers” which cater to the franchise industry.
Lim said a series of seminars and workshops, led by industry experts, would cover crucial topics for building and managing successful franchises. Participants can gain valuable insights, practical knowledge and networking opportunities with like-minded individuals.
The 31st edition of the Franchise Asia Philippines Expo serves as the PFA’s flagship event for promoting franchising as a powerful tool for job creation and business development.
The event’s consistent high attendance, averaging 50,000 visitors annually, encourages many Filipinos to become business owners themselves.
