meetings with franchisors for potential franchisees on Friday, April 24th. If you are interested in a franchise concept, please
advise us by email and we will schedule a meeting for you.
Workshops will introduce you to the value and economics of franchising & entrepreneurship. You will hear from international
franchise experts, entrepreneurs and business owners. Franchising & entrepreneurship has become the dominant method for
the creation of wealth through small business ownership. Once known for restaurants, today franchising is used by over 85
industries including a wide range of consumer and business to business services, retail, hospitality, health, recreation and many
more. These workshops will explain how to turn your business into a successful franchise.
Franchising will give your business a better chance of success and bring global recognition. The Bahamas welcomes over 5
million visitors a year with a growing consumer population that is becoming more brand conscious. There are many
international concepts that can work in The Bahamas and opportunities to expand and develop local business beyond the
islands.
Entrepreneurship is more than simply “starting a business.” The definition of entrepreneurship is a process through which
individuals identify opportunities, allocate resources and create value. This creation of value is often through the identification
of unmet needs or through the identification of opportunities for change.
