AZ Franchising Expo
The scenarios of the employment world are changing and AZ Franchising responds to new challenges of the labor market with the new edition of AZ Franchising Expo.
More and more people are turning to franchising as a possibility of self-employment and of achieving professional fulfillment. Many managers that left their companies or that were laid off during the last year have decided to convert their skills in the franchise sector which presents growth figures. This tendency offers the franchisors the possibility to select partners with advanced skills and greater availability of investment.
The last edition of AZ Franchising Expo has been able to break with tradition and establish a new platform for exchanges between all the protagonists of the retail sector - franchisors, franchisees, suppliers of services, real estate operators, etc.
Two days with the franchise leaders for new business and work opportunities

Why AZ Franchising EXPO?
More than 182thousand: are those people, who in 2008 found a job in franchise, among the network’s employees and the same franchisees *. An almost unchanged number of people compared to 2007, and therefore particularly significant, also for the increasingly wider and multi-faceted public, which seeks in the franchise an answer to the employment difficulties.
Entrepreneurs, students, dealers. Independent workers, employees, freelancers, unemployed people. These are, in order, the widest public slices, which turn to AZ System in order to find a work opportunity in the franchise. Moreover there are salespeople, housewives, retired or exiled from the employment market managers also because of a crisis that, in 2008 too, did not affect the smooth running of the franchise. This was revealed by a survey conducted by the Research and Development Department of AZ Franchising. Companies who want to renovate, therefore, using the formula based on the principle of innovation and the sharing of a tested and steady know how. And new players "freelance", strong because of a prior experience in the market - like the increasing number of managers who are turning to franchising – or who are ready to take the plunge with the help of a network.
