International Franchise Association

The International Franchise Association is the only national trade association that represents all aspects of the franchise community. Its mission is to protect, enhance and promote franchising and it is the leading source of information about franchising a business or buying a franchise. The association works to protect the marketing environment for franchised businesses by lobbying against unfair laws and regulations, educating the news media and other influencers about the economic impact of franchising, and helping IFA members keep abreast of the latest domestic and international marketing, businesses and legal information related to franchising.
