Associate Membership

The AAFD Franchisee Associate Membership is ideal for prospective franchisees and existing franchisees who are not participating in an AAFD Chapter for your franchise system. When you join as an Associate Member you become part of a community that is committed to bringing fair and balanced franchise relationship to the franchising community. You can also find out how to organize the franchisees in your system into an AAFD Chapter or Independent Association, or to get your franchise system to become an AAFD Accredited Franchisor.

If you are unsure if your franchise system has a chapter with the AAFD, take a minute to review our Chapter List.

Our Associate Membership is also a great way to access exclusive member benefits and discounts such as:

  • Access to the AAFD’s Franchisee LEGALINE℠
  • AAFD Healthcare Benefits
  • The AAFD Franchise Evaluation Tool
  • Listing Offers for members who are looking to buy or sell existing franchised businesses from BizBuySell, the Internet’s largest ‘business for sale’ marketplace and ongoing supplier deals.
