NEW YORK, June 8, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Following 20 years in Washington, D.C., the International Franchise Exposition is coming to New York City. The IFE is the biggest franchise show in the nation and will feature the best brands in franchising. The show is set for June 15-17 at the Javits Center in Midtown Manhattan.
The three-day expo will showcase over 300 established franchise companies offering a wide range of opportunities at virtually every investment level. You'll meet franchise concepts with investments ranging from $5,000 to $5,000,000. All of these businesses are looking to expand in our area and are looking for potential owners.
According to franchise experts, people seeking to purchase franchises are using their 401K's, built savings and even equity in their homes. At the IFE you'll also have the chance to speak with companies that specialize in franchise financing. You can actually attend a class and learn all about how to finance your new venture. Are you a current business owner? Have you ever thought of franchising your business? Attend IFE and find out what you need to know.
Hundreds of franchises will be exhibiting at the expo this year - the biggest IFE ever. So you're sure to find a franchise that's right for you. At the IFE you'll meet with companies that care – Adult Care, Child Care, Pet Care and more. If a food business is more your speed, you'll meet established businesses offering pizza, frozen yogurt, quick serve restaurants and so much more. IFE will feature the companies we all know and so many new, exciting concepts.
Perhaps you're looking for a hands-on career – at IFE you'll meet with companies involved in the commercial and residential cleaning business, hardware stores, door repair, automotive products and services, lawn and garden, and many industries you may not have considered.
"This year, we wanted to take the IFE to another level," said Portesy. "What better place to do it than in the business capital of the world? The IFE gives you the opportunity to be in business for yourself but not by yourself."
