Paris, October 23rd, 2020- Reed Expositions France and the French Franchise Federation announce that the 2021 edition of Franchise Expo Paris will take place from September 26 to 29, 2021. More than ever, the show is the largest international event dedicated to franchise.
Following the government announcements of last September 23, the edition which should have taken place from October 4 to 7 had to be postponed. These last few weeks, REED Expositions France and French Franchise Federation teams have worked for Franchise Expo Paris 2021 to take place under optimal conditions.
Maintaining the show in pavilions 2 & 3 will allow exhibitors to keep their original booth locations and the booth they were supposed to have for the 2020 edition. The show's team will be able to rely on the great unifying and resilientspirit of the franchise world to make this 39th edition a great event which first mission is to bring together franchisors and future franchise candidates.
« Despite the constraints of the state of health emergency, we have worked together with the FFF and our partners to find an ideal date to reschedule Franchise Expo Paris in 2021. Postponing the show in September, appeared to us to be THE right decision: it was important to take the most reassuring measures possible for all of our participants.
In addition, maintaining Franchise Expo Paris in the pavilions it has occupied for several years will allow the exhibitors of the 2020 edition to postpone their participation without any impact. The show will undoubtedly be a highlight and eagerly awaited by all: brands, experts, funding organizations, business creation partners as well as the many franchise candidates. »

« This is an unusual date for the show but holding such an event in the right conditions on the first part of 2021is too uncertain. Holding Franchise Expo Paris in September is a cautious decision, which should enable us to avoid any postponement and to guarantee the best conditions for exhibitors. The FFF team is ready to make this 39th edition a unique meeting time. In the meantime, we will be keen in the coming months to promote our economic model as a resilient, strong, up-to-date, and more than ever useful to our economy.»
