An Exclusive deal in Australia

Ben & Jerry’s has announced that they will have their initial franchise fee waived as part of an exclusive deal in Australia. This will be available for all new franchisees who sign up before the 30th September 2022.

It is planned that the new initiative will open the franchise opportunity to more people and allow interested partners looking to own and operate a small business in their desired industry. This allows the chance to be involved in a global network that is supported by training systems, as well as being backed by corporate giant Unilever.
