AAFD GOLD CIRCLE SPONSORS
Our Services and Areas of Expertise
The AAFD’s mission is to achieve Total Quality Franchising. We do this by promoting fair and equitable franchising and dealer practices and empowering effective independent franchise associations.
Many voices speaking together are hard for a franchisor to ignore. Use your collective power to win a seat at the table and to fight for fair treatment from your franchisor. It all starts with forming a franchisee chapter.
At the AAFD our goal is to help your franchisee chapter get off the ground, provide value to your members, and succeed in your mission. We offer a variety of chapter support functions as well as an excellent and experienced staff of chapter coordinators.
Need a franchise attorney to review your franchise agreement, assess a potential case, help you start a franchisee association, or just answer your most pressing legal questions?
Our Franchisee LegaLine members are the best in the biz!
Thinking of buying a franchise?
Before you commit your time, effort, and life savings into a franchise business, learn the facts, as well as the true risks that franchisors don’t want you to know about!
