## Story

The event will be a one-stop shop for those interested in learning more about specific franchises and franchising in general. Attendees will have access to a programming schedule moderated by industry leaders designed to guide entrepreneurs through the process of finding the franchise that is the right fit. More than 100 exhibitors will be represented, including Ace Hardware, Baskin-Robbins, Zaxby’s Franchising, 1Heart Caregiver Services and Fit20, among others.

Becoming a franchisee provides aspiring business owners the opportunity to work for themselves with the support of a proven business model. Franchising also provides the responsibility and flexibility of business ownership with an established brand's tried and true processes, reputation and marketing.

The expo is also a resource for the countless successful brands that call Houston home. Through in-depth workshops and free seminars, local business owners will learn about the steps to take their business to franchise to expand beyond the area.

“This is a great opportunity to explore franchising that fits your personal needs and lifestyle,” said Sheila Fischer, vice president of MFV Expositions. “Becoming a franchisee is more financially attainable than you may expect, and the low cost of living and doing business makes Houston an ideal location for starting a franchise.”
