The expo deeply integrates resources and comprehensively includes 18 trendy industries such as catering, retail, education, and services, carefully constructing a full-industry chain exhibition platform that precisely meets the diverse needs of different investors. The catering industry is consistently a popular sector for franchise chains, showcasing traditional favorites such as hot pot and barbecue, alongside new trendy formats like coffee, tea drinks, and specialty snacks. Here, you can enjoy both classic Chinese meals with rich flavors and creative, fashionable Western fast-food options. Popular trendy dining brands will present unique flavors and innovative business models, bringing entrepreneurs new opportunities in the food franchise sector.
The retail sector, under the backdrop of consumption upgrades, faces fresh opportunities and challenges. The retail section of the expo will showcase innovations in supermarkets, convenience stores, specialty shops (covering food, clothing, tea, beverages, etc.), and new retail formats. Attendees will gain insights into new retail trends and explore how to reshape the retail value chain through digital management, supply chain optimization, and experiential marketing, thus identifying suitable retail franchise projects.
The education and service industries will dazzle as well. The education section encompasses kindergartens, early education, vocational training, and arts education, empowering entrepreneurs to venture into the education field. The service industry focuses on hotel chains, automotive services, beauty and wellness, featuring projects that exhibit strong customer loyalty, substantial profit margins, and minimal impact from e-commerce, making them ideal for investors seeking stable long-term operations.
The 2025 Beijing International Franchise Expo is a rare one-stop platform for matching entrepreneurial resources. Here, entrepreneurs can connect with numerous quality franchise projects across various industries in a short time, and through direct communication with brand representatives and on-site experiences, gain in-depth understanding of project business models, product features, and operational support. Professional investment consultants and entrepreneurship mentors will offer guidance, allowing entrepreneurs to analyze project feasibility and risks rationally, facilitating more informed investment decisions and significantly increasing the probability of success. Moreover, the expo offers networking opportunities to share experiences and inspire one another in pursuing the entrepreneurial journey.
