HELP FOR NZ FRANCHISORS
TO ATTEND US FRANCHISE EXPO
18 May 2015 - The US Department of Commerce is offering assistance to NZ franchisors wanting to attend next month's International Franchise Expo in New York.
The International Franchise Expo is taking place in New York next month and the US Department of Commerce is offering assistance to any franchisors from New Zealand interested in attending. The 24th annual International Franchise Expo (IFE) takes place from 18-20 June and is the world’s favourite exhibition for bringing together established and new franchise brands, and matching them with those who have an interest in developing the brand back home or in the US.
As members of the US Embassy delegation from NZ, franchisors will receive free registration to the event plus a 50 percent discount on a full range of educational seminars, including one on Strategies for Franchising Into the US Market. In addition, they will have complimentary access to business facilities on site including refreshments, meeting rooms and introductions (on request) to buyers/ groups/ state officials arranged by the International Trade Administration.
Delegates are also invited to join the International Reception Cruise aboard the World Yacht on Thursday, June 18 to view the landmarks of New York – the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and the iconic skyline.
