Franchise Chain is a successful and widely recognized business model that requires low investment and gives good returns. In developed countries, franchise chains occupy a large share of the commercial sector, and there is still significant market potential in China, where it is growing at a rate of 50% to 60% annually. According to the Ministry of Commerce, China is now one of the countries with the highest number of franchise systems in the world.
The Guangzhou Catering Franchise & Franchise Expo, organized by FORO EXHIBITION, is one of the largest professional franchise exhibitions in South China, which attracts a large number of audience and high-quality exhibitors. It has become a preferred platform for chain enterprises to recruit franchisees and seize the South China market, while investors seek potential franchise projects here. In the previous exhibition, major media outlets reported extensively, and the event was bustling with investors, creating a strong atmosphere for business discussions, demonstrating an unprecedented investment and entrepreneurial enthusiasm in China, which has received recognition from many franchise enterprises and investors.
The purpose of the exhibition is to assist domestic and international quality franchise companies in attracting investment and helping investors choose good projects. We sincerely invite the participation of new and old friends to share the unlimited business opportunities that franchise chains bring!
The benefits of the exhibition include: lower costs and better results compared to other promotional methods; providing an opportunity for potential buyers and franchisees to communicate directly, allowing companies to understand client needs fully; showcasing businesses alongside competitors helps establish brand advantages; and the exhibition creates a buzz that positively influences the company’s image and product branding.
Categories exhibited at this event include: Retail goods (fashion accessories, supermarkets, convenience stores, pharmacies, etc.), Food and Beverage (Chinese and Western cuisine, hot pot, coffee, bars, snacks, etc.), Apparel and Accessories (branded clothing, fabric products, footwear, etc.), Education and Training (educational institutions, professional training, etc.), Baby and Children's Products (educational toys, children's clothing, etc.), Health and Beauty (beauty, fitness, health products), and Business Services (real estate, cleaning services, etc.).
