This scheme is provided by European Franchise Federation
The European Franchise Federation is the leading advocate for the franchise industry in Europe, whose goal is to develop and promote the franchise business model. Their members are national franchise associations committed to ethical franchising and sharing best practice within our growing industry community.
It was founded in 1972 as a not-for-profit association to promote, defend and speak for the franchise industry in Europe. The EFF is now recognized as the leading voice for ethical franchising.
Code of Ethics
The European Code of Ethics for Franchising sets out how to manage a successful relationship between a franchisor and each of its franchisees.
It is underpinned by a set of ethics based on good faith and fair dealings, which if followed, will make sure that any franchisor-franchisee relationship is characterized by transparency and loyalty. All of the most successful franchises are based on this philosophy.
The Code is binding for all the European Franchise Federation’s Members as well as their respective memberships. However, it also serves as guidelines across the franchise industry. It can be used as guidance to legislators, the judiciary, other professional organisations as a standard.
Events
The EFF host a range of online events and webinars that are free to attend.
