The full AFC Franchise Development Programme includes the following tasks:

Step One – Initial Assessment

Analysis and Franchise Business Planning

The first step is for AFC franchise consultants to carry out an evaluation of your company, considering all aspects of your business in relation to the envisaged franchise. Having identified the best way to proceed, AFC outlines the work programme and budget requirements. This thorough process will allow you to reach a highly informed decision and identify the most practical and profitable route to franchise your business.

Step Two – Franchise Development

Planning and Development

Our franchise consultants work with you to put in place the necessary infrastructure requirements. These include:

  • Developing corporate and brand images

  • Briefing franchise lawyers
  • Writing operation manuals
  • Arranging training programmes
  • Defining administrative systems
  • Making financial projections
  • Attending to all other areas critical to success, before starting the recruitment of the franchise network.
