Friday Franchise News; Next Week is Scottish Franchise Week!

You heard it here first; Scottish Franchise Week takes place May 16th-May 20th! If you happen to be in the neighborhood, (of the Hilton Glagow on Wednesday) there’s a business breakfast scheduled there as part of the festivities.

Franchising contributes about £800 million a year to the Scottish economy and is responsible for creating an estimated 30,000 jobs. The highly successful business model plays a major part in the country’s fortunes with almost 500 different franchise brands operating in Scotland today, accounting for approximately 2,000 individual franchisee businesses.
