## Story

The European Franchising Federation (EFF) has announced the nominees for the European Franchising Federation Awards, put forward by the brands’ respective national franchising associations. Sponsored by *Global Franchise*, these awards are the first of its kind by allowing national associations to put forward their own country award winners to be judged.

“Our awards are all about acknowledging some of the excellent companies and leaders in this sector. It also supports our mission to truly build a community across franchising in Europe, bringing together franchisors, franchisees and industry leaders,” said Alisdair Gray, executive director of the EFF.

The judging panel, comprising of heads of associations, met in London in June to review the entries and put forward a shortlist from the following nominees:

Right at Home – U.K.

Kiinteistömaailma – Finland

Goldex – U.K.

Pizzaria Luzzo – Portugal

Little Kickers – U.K.

The CO-OP – U.K.

Fitness Factory – Portugal

Anytime Fitness – U.K.

The winnners of the EFF Franchise Awards 2022 will be announced at a gala dinner taking place in Brussels on 19 September.

“It has been a real privilege to see these awards come together and I hope that we can reach even more countries and sectors in years to come,” said Gray.

“Our aim is to grow these awards, increasing the categories for entrants, and putting in place an annual celebration that truly highlights the diversity and richness of the franchise industry in Europe.”

The winners of the first-ever EFF Franchise Awards will feature in the September issue of the magazine.
