Select a Franchise to Invest by the WFC - World Franchise Council
The World Franchise Council (WFC) is a non-political association of more than 40 national franchise associations from around the world.
Formed in 1994, it aims to promote the growth of franchising internationally, and facilitate best practice in franchise association management among its members. It also aims to foster and encourage the development of franchise associations in nations where such an association does not currently exist. For details about franchising in any specific member nation, please see the list of member nations and click directly through to the website of the nation which interests you. (Where a member’s website appears in a language other than English, an additional link to an automated English translation is also included).
