Ready to scale up? The Multi-unit Franchise Conference is back this October

Thinking about growing your franchise portfolio? Or maybe you’re curious about what it really takes to manage multiple brands or locations? The Multi-unit Franchise Conference, returning on Friday, 3 October at the NEC, Birmingham, is designed to give ambitious franchisees and entrepreneurs the tools, inspiration, and connections they need to level up their portfolios.

Hosted alongside The National Franchise Exhibition, this one-day event brings together some of the most successful multi-unit operators in the UK. Expect honest conversations, insider tips, and plenty of opportunities to ask questions and swap ideas with people who’ve been there and done it.

Existing franchisees considering expansion, ambitious entrepreneurs looking to invest in multiple units and business owners looking to diversify their portfolios will not want to miss this event.

What to Expect

  • Real stories from real operators
    Hear from multi-unit owners like Pav and Hardev Kang (Anytime Fitness), Suhail Rehman (Black Sheep Coffee, Home Instead and easyStorage) and Lucy McCormack (Bluebird Care). They’ll share what’s worked, what hasn’t, and the mindset that helped them grow.
  • Practical sessions that cut to the chase
    From understanding the ‘Multi-unit mindset’ to scaling smart, the content provides straightforward, actionable insights. You’ll also hear from legal experts like Natalia Shvarts and Kevin Hein on how to avoid the pitfalls when expanding.
  • A chance to connect
    Over coffee, lunch, and in the VIP lounge, you’ll be mixing with fellow franchisees, franchisors, and advisors. It’s the perfect setting to ask questions, share experiences, and build the kind of relationships that can shape your next move.

Why Come Along?

If you’re serious about growth, this is where you’ll pick up tried-and-tested strategies, meet people who’ve scaled successfully, and get a real sense of what multi-unit franchising looks like day-to-day.
