THE BFA want to lead the charge and influence change in UK franchising. It’s our goal to showcase the fantastic opportunities for businesses and individuals within franchising, and how these possibilities can positively transform people’s lives, no matter what their background or starting point may be.
Whether you want to set up your own new business through franchising, or you want to grow an existing brand by franchising to others, the BFA is your trusted partner. With our support you’ll get your ambitions off to the strongest possible start – and enjoy ongoing guidance and advice wherever tomorrow takes you.
Discover Your Tomorrow with The BFA
There’s nothing quite like franchising to make business ambitions happen. If you already
have a successful brand, allowing others to buy in is a proven way to accelerate growth. Or, if you’re dreaming of going into business for the first time, opening your doors under an established name can get you off to a flying start.
We’ve been here for over 40 years, helping entrepreneurs of all kinds make vital contacts. Supporting and educating franchisors and franchisees at every level of their development from newcomers to household names, setting the highest ethical standards to make sure everyone is treated fairly.
