Women and Minorities Franchise Opportunities Seminar…

Women and Minorities Franchise Opportunities seminar series started today (20th March) in Adelphi Prince George’s County and continues throughout 2008 scheduled at set locations…

The next seminar is scheduled for March 29th and is to be held in St Louis Development Corporation and the St Louis Minority Business Enterprise Center in Missouri.

This series of seminars is supported by the International Franchise Association’s (IFA) MinorityFran program. It has provided one of the central resources since its launch in 2006, for the establishment of franchise and biz opportunities franchisors to locate minorities willing to invest in a franchise opportunity…The MinorityFran “initiative builds on relationships forged with leading organizations through the IFA Diversity Institute…”

Its main goals are:

1. Minority Fran’s first goal is to help increase the “numbers of minority franchisees” across all states in the US. This is achieved through the IFA website and relevant associations but in particular its annual seminars and conferences.

2. Minority Fran’s second goal is “to send the message to all communities that franchising is a smart and affordable way to realize the American Dream of small business ownership.”
