The Australian franchise sector is worth more than $130 billion dollars, employs more than half a million people and is home to more than 1200 franchise businesses.
Globally the franchise sector continues to expand and permeates virtually every industry from fast food, retail, education and health care to professional services, personal services and more.
If you are thinking of buying a franchise it’s important you know how to correctly assess franchise business opportunities to ensure you make the right choice.
Delivered by Griffith University and sponsored by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), the free 'Buying a Franchise' Pre-Entry Franchise Education Program is designed to assist franchisees to better understand the due diligence process and create more realistic expectations when entering franchising.
