Saturday 3 October
10:45 Keynote: Franchising and Philanthropy:  How a franchisee transformed his business and his community

 

Tony Sealey's extraordinary story of business success and community contribution has won him the hearts and minds of the West Midlands, the nation and the Queen herself.

In his address, discover how he combines being the owner-operator of four McDonald's restaurants in North West Birmingham with a string of community orientated roles and commitments helping many needy causes and organisations, while maintaining and growing a hugely successful business.

Tony's social responsibility starts with his own staff in which he has invested time, money and energy to ensure their happiness, stability and commitment to their work.  Find out why his staff retention is 40% ahead of his peer group.

His charity and community involvements range from, among many others, having being Chair of Regen WM the Government's Regeneration Centre of Excellence for the West Midlands, UK Government's Small Business Investment Task Force, Trustee for the Prostate Cancer Charity, a member of Black Business Forum, and member of the Department of Trade and Industry's National Ethnic Minority Business Form.

In his address, visitors will find out why in business, givers will gain. Tony will demonstrate how being involved with local and needy causes, close to your business and community, extends your influence, and general gravitas as a business person - in a meaningful way.
