SANTA ANA, CA--(LAB NEWS WIRE) - July 14, 2009—LA BOXING Franchise
Corporation and THE KOSNAR GROUP, franchise development consultants
for LA BOXING, co-hosted the International Franchise Association
Quarterly Franchise Business Network meeting today in Santa Ana,
California.
In early 1991, Fred DeLuca, founder of Subway Sandwiches and Salads, developed the International Franchise Association (IFA) 2nd Tuesday program. The purpose of the program was to create an informal atmosphere whereby franchisors and suppliers could discuss current topics related to franchising. IFA coordinated this effort by soliciting IFA and Supplier Forum members to host the meetings in major cities across the United States.
IFA''s Franchise Business Network (FBN) commenced October 1996. The FBN meetings were grassroots networking opportunities for the franchise community. They were designed to bring local franchisors, franchisees, and suppliers together on a regular basis to create business-to-business opportunities and offer affordable educational programs.
Today, IFA’s FBN is the combination of IFA’s two regional programs, the 2nd Tuesday Program and the original FBN Program. The IFA Board of Directors voted at its Fall 2000 meeting to combine the 2nd Tuesday Program and Franchise Business Network Program into one single program meeting in 20 plus cities around the country.
“The new program selects the best features of both programs and combines them into one winning formula for success,” said Carl Kosnar, Managing Partner of The Kosnar Group, franchise development consultants for LA BOXING Franchise Corporation.”
For the most part, meetings are still scheduled for the second Tuesday of each quarter across the U.S. While networking with others in the franchise community, meeting potential customers, and making new business contacts, participants take advantage of educational programs and legislative information made available to them at no charge, except for the cost of meals.
