Feedbacks

I work in the real estate business, and I'm at the fair for the first time, I found a large portfolio at the fair, with several segments. A place with great opportunity for those who want to invest. I still haven't defined which brand I'm going to invest in, but I already have some options to visit”, said Lucas Camacho, 31 years old.


“I have a company in the industrial sector, and every year I come with my husband to the ABF fair to see what's new from the brands. This year in particular, I am looking for a franchise to invest with my son, we are focused on the Home and Construction segment and the business proposals are great”, said Ana Lucia Moraes, 66 years old.


My wife and I are at the fair for the first time, I work as a security guard, and my wife is in the technology field. We are at the fair looking for a business to invest in the future. Here we have the opportunity to see and get to know the business more closely and see what fits our profile" , said Hugo Imanichi, 50 years old.


Exhibitor: Marcel Gandra, sócio-diretor do Grupo Ultra Franquias

“In our first participation, we arrived with the objective of presenting the relevance of the fitness sector for the franchise market. We came to show investors, those who are still far from this market, that our sector delivers good results, great profitability and still brings quality of life to people. And we got the message across. We came with a bold goal and we surpassed it on the second day. In short, we closed the fair with a doubled goal. And, in addition to the goals, the qualification of leads provided us with very productive business rounds, as people came looking for something to undertake and we were able to present ourselves as a good option”.


Exhibitor: José Henrique Silva, Gerente de expansão da Oral Sin

“The presence of the Oral Sin network at the ABF 2023 fair came to consecrate, along with the other participants of the SMZTO group, the positive recognition as a pioneering brand in dental implants in the health, beauty and well-being segment in the country. The fair this year was excellent, we had well-qualified candidates at the fair this year, with a smaller volume, but well targeted to know which is the best business to invest in. The profile that appeared the most at our stand was an entrepreneur, more of an investor than a dentist. People looking for solid business”.


Exhibitor: Sergio Martins – gerente de expansão da N1 Chicken

“Our expectations were already exceeded on the first day, due to the number of people we had at our stand. We are with very advanced negotiations and the objective is to sell 20 new franchises, surpassing last year. We are receiving people with a profile focused on food and delivery, which is great for us. This year, we noticed that the organization is much better, with a greater number of participating franchises. We had visits from our franchisees who saw the importance of our network within franchising”.
