New sessions added on rebuilding your business after Covid-19
NOTE: The 2020 Multi-Unit Franchising Conference has been rescheduled to Sept. 1 -4 . Keynote speakers (see below) have committed to the new dates, as have most panelists, barring previous commitments. Yet, as we keep hearing, the situation is fluid. Stay informed through our website at www.multiunitfranchisingconference.com. Till then, keep safe and stay healthy!The agenda will be updated with the addition of new sessions on the impact, challenges, and opportunities for franchisees and franchisors on how to rebuild, reorganize, and rejuvenate their business in a post-pandemic world.
The Multi-Unit Franchising Conference (MUFC) is marking its 20th year of growth by relocating to the brand new Caesars Forum, Las Vegas’s newest conference center. Located across the street from Caesars Palace, the 550,000-sq.ft., $375 million, state-of-the-art venue was chosen to accommodate the event’s growing number of attendees and exhibitors.
The first — and largest — conference dedicated exclusively to multi-unit franchising, the 2019 MUFC drew more than 1,700 attendees, representing more than 16,000 units and $9 billion in annual revenue. Before the coronavirus, attendance was on pace to reach or exceed 2,000. We are expecting, and hoping along with everyone else, to come out of this pandemic healthy and eager to resume business in what most likely will be a different marketplace.
“I have been attending the MUFC since 2006 and have made a deal every year I attended, with only one year being the exception,” says 2020 Conference Chair Tony Lutfi, a longtime multi-brand franchisee. “Along with my family, I grew our portfolio from less than 50 locations to more than 230 with 7 brands in 11 states. This growth could not have been possible had I not invested the time and energy in meeting, networking, and learning from others at this annual event.”
