Gaurav Marya,Chairman, Franchise India

The relevance of franchising and its power to leverage

entrepreneurial resources to build growth in India has never

been as strong as it is today. I have been a franchise

evangelist in India for nearly two decades now, and till date I

have only seen growth in the business. Growth has taken

place year-on-year despite whatever has happened in the

national and international economic scene. This is an

exciting time for entrepreneurship in India. Aspiring

entrepreneurs are taking up franchise opportunities by

buying into an established business instead of taking the

extra risk of an independent start-up. At the same time

consumerism is deepening its presence in the country. The

preference for high value brands is spreading rapidly. The

trend of increasing entrepreneurship and a maturing

consumer market is feeding into each other.

consumer market is feeding into each other.

The Franchise and Retail Opportunity (FRO) event has now

completed 88 successful editions. In the year 2015-16 FRO will

continue to facilitate start-ups and businesses in the growth-

stage to partner with the entrepreneur-community across the

length and breadth of India. The FRO exhibition will bring

franchisors in direct access with potential franchise buyers

from across every single region of the country. The franchise

community looks forward to FRO events as an opportunity to

meet and interact, investigate all manner of opportunities,

including single units, area developments and master

franchises.

I look forward to your participation in 2016 at FRO Event which

holds Mega Events and offer Magnificent biz ideas!

Happy Franchising
