Ukraine - Forthcoming Franchise Exhibitions
06 November 2007
In one of our recent
franflashes, we have highlighted the franchising opportunities
that currently await foreign franchisors in the Ukraine with its
rapidly expanding market. Areas that enjoy particular growth
are:
- the retail sector with a growth rate at 40%;
and
- Pizza Restaurants with a growth rate of 200%
+
The Ukrainian market in franchising is well
developed. Insiders consider it to be one of the most dynamic
markets in the region. Accordingly, the Ukraine presents
itself as a possible gateway to the CIS.
There are two upcoming events that foreign
franchisors planning to enter the region should consider
attending:
- the Ukraine 2007 franchise exhibition on 14-16 November;
and
- the Ukraine Retail Forum 2007 from 28-30
November.
Both events will offer foreign franchisors a
good opportunity to get a first impression of this new and dynamic
market.
For information franchising in the Ukraine
or the CIS, please contact Mark Abell or Babette Märzheuser-Wood who is a Russian
speaker.
