Find and visit the Franchise Association in Any Country
Franchising doesn't stop at the border. If you're a franchisor planning international expansion, a consultant advising clients on a new market, or a prospective franchisee looking at opportunities abroad, the national franchise association is often the best place to start.
These associations are the trusted local voice of franchising. They share information on their domestic franchise markets, rules and regulations, industry events, education, and member brands. Many also belong to the World Franchise Council, a global network of national franchise associations, which makes them a reliable connection point wherever you're headed.

We built this directory so you don't have to hunt for them one at a time. FranchisePressReleases.com has gathered the world's franchise associations in one place for the global franchise community.
Is your association missing, or has your website or name changed? Interested in advertising? We want this directory to stay accurate. Franchise associations are welcome to send us updates, corrections, or new listings here.
