"Subway joined IFA in the late 70's when we had fewer than 100 outlets, and I've attended almost every convention since then. By speaking to other franchisors at IFA conventions, I gained the confidence to set some very high achievement goals for Subway."

Fred DeLuca, CFE

Founder

Subway World Headquarters

"Not getting my company actively involved in the IFA much sooner is one of the bigger mistakes I have ever made in business. Anybody seriously involved in franchising should make attending the IFA Convention a priority. The educational content is first rate and the opportunity to build valuable new business relationships is unsurpassed."

Joe Bourdow

President

Valpak

"Getting involved in the IFA early on was one of the best decisions that my dad ever made for me (fresh out of high school). After more than 20 years of attending IFA conventions, I continue to learn and grow from the educational sessions as well as meet new people who I reach out to and network with year round. I would advise anyone in franchising to make this an annual commitment."

Dina Dwyer-Owens, CFE

President & CEO

The Dwyer Group, Inc.

"Being a part of the IFA provides franchisors with an unparalleled opportunity to form or renew relationships with the "heavy hitters" in the industry, catch up with emerging trends and study the techniques that are available to operate better franchise systems. From the exhibits to the general and educational sessions, the IFA provides invaluable information to new and seasoned members of the franchising population."
