MANILA, Philippines - Philippine franchise guru Armando ‘Butz’ O. Bartolome is kicking off his nationwide seminar series this year in Davao City with the theme “Realities in Franchising.”
Bartolome, the newly elected president of the Association of Filipino Franchisers Inc. (AFFI)- the foremost industry group that advocates innovative policies and programs for home-grown franchise concepts, will acquaint prospective franchisees on the ins and outs of franchising so they will be properly informed on the business before they invest their hard-earned money.
Bartolome is recognized as an enabler to the success of a good number of locally-bred franchisers, which include the phenomenal Mang Inasal, Fiorgelato Ice Cream, Bibingkinitan, Potato Corner, Ginger Snaps, El Buono Pizza, Lay Bare, Bayad Center, Julie’s Bakeshop, Generika Drugstore, Lot’s A Pizza, Peanut World, Baliwag Chicken, and Chicharific!, among others.
“They should know the questions that they need to ask and the information they will need from franchisors in the one-day event. At the end of the seminar, they will be more confident in putting their money in the franchise of their choice,” Bartolome, founder of GMB Franchise Developers, explained.
The seminar will be held at Marco Polo Hotel in Davao City on May 17. Handouts, certificates, lunch, and morning and afternoon snacks will be provided.
