Davao Region’s most awaited franchising event opens TODAY, July 4, 2025, as Franchise Negosyo Para sa Region XI (Davao) returns at the SM Lanang Premier Atrium. The Philippine Franchise Association (PFA) brings together the country’s top franchise brands and industry experts for a two-day event (July 4-5, 2025) tailored for Region XI.
Whether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, a returning OFW looking for a fresh start, or a business owner eyeing expansion, the expo offers the perfect gateway to the world of franchising. With over 40 exhibitors and more than 200 brands, attendees can explore a wide selection of concepts — from food and retail to services and financial support.
Franchise Negosyo Regional Events goes beyond showcasing businesses — it empowers decision-making. The event features free seminars, including “How to Invest in the Right Franchise” and “How to Franchise Your Business,” crafted for both new and seasoned entrepreneurs. Attendees can also gain valuable insights at the Franchise Forum, themed “Franchising: The Proven Growth Strategy You Can’t Afford to Ignore,” where leading industry experts will share their success stories and expansion tips.
