    About FranchiseMart

    FranchiseMart is the first business of its kind to match people looking for franchise opportunities with franchise companies through a convenient retail location, much like having a local trade show set up permanently. Trends towards small business ownership and corporate downsizing are growing rapidly, and with that, so are franchises. As someone interested in owning their own business, you know first hand how difficult and costly it is to filter through all of the franchise opportunities and it's hard to know where to go to find the right fit...until FranchiseMart.
