ABOUT

The Franchise Chamber

 The Franchise Chamber of South Africa has a team with more than 20 years’ experience, passionately helping small to medium sized Businesses grow by means of building franchise systems, guiding franchisees towards extraordinary business growth, providing employment opportunities, and ultimately stimulating economic activity within South Africa. We do this by: 

 

  • Assisting stable successful companies develop a profitable franchise system for both the franchisor and the franchisee. 
  • Taking franchises to the market and helping franchisees in creating a reliable income stream. 
  • We believe that the relationship between the franchisor and franchisee is directly related to the profit that the business generates, and we are particularly conscientious about ensuring that business runs efficiently and transparently between both entities. 
Why Buy franchise?

A franchise is a tried and tested business system, it requires significantly less capital to start than a traditional business and you can generate cash flow much quicker as there is already an established brand in place.
