This year will once again see the Austrian Franchise Fair take place as an in-person event, to be held in Vienna on 24 and 25 June 2022.
The fair is aimed at anyone considering taking up self-employment through franchising.
The event will also be of interest to companies wishing to use franchising to expand or to incorporate another brand into their portfolio.
There is also an attractive programme of events on the menu for companies with an interest in investing in the franchising brand environment.
The tried-and-tested formula: exhibitors from both freshly minted and established franchise systems at every investment level on an international brand market place, combined with a wide-ranging programme of presentations and on-stage events.

There are around 495 franchise systems (with a total of 9,600 franchise partners) currently operating in Austria, and franchising has demonstrated its durability during the Coronavirus crisis: 91% of the systems are now looking to further expansion. The vibrant market for founding companies is also proof positive that self-employment is on the up and up in Austria.
Among many others 2022 exhibitors will include: McDonald´s, Ankerbrot, AIS 24-hour support, Das Futterhaus, Burgerista, the fitness label Injoy, Unimarkt from the world of retail, the new pizza system Pipapo, and newcomers The Vending Brothers, who have specialised in mini-vending machines with video screens.
