The UK Franchise Directory

With over 1,400 UK and Irish franchisors listed, such as McDonald's, Subway, Cash Generator and ChipsAway to name a few, and advice and guidance features from industry professionals, The UK Franchise Directory is a must read for anybody considering franchising.

Over the last 10 years franchising has grown in popularity and stature as more and more people realise the benefits of investing in a franchise: namely a more successful and stable way to start your own business while avoiding the common pitfalls associated with self-employment.

Data collected by the Natwest/British Franchise Association (bfa) 2008 Franchise Survey found that nine out of 10 franchise owners operate a profitable business and 25 per cent of those turn over £500,000 or more. These high success rates coupled with the growing number of people being made redundant nationwide has had a positive effect on the franchise industry with more people taking the plunge and becoming their own boss.

Franchising encompasses a broad range of industries and business types and with so much choice and information available it can be quite daunting to know where to start. This is why The UK Franchise Directory 22nd Edition is packed with expert advice and guidance to help prospective franchise owners begin an exciting journey into the world of franchising.

This edition includes a comprehensive advice and guidance section for prospective franchise owners and franchisors written by banks, lawyers and bfa-affiliated franchise consultants. New additions to this year's directory include the product and service buyer's guide to the franchise sector and a Master Franchise Showcase. By listing every franchisor, this directory is a starting point for everyone wishing to research available opportunities within the franchise industry. The directory lists franchise opportunities in the UK and the world at large alphabetically and in their business category in an easy to find format.
