Franchise Relationships Institute (FRI) has now celebrated two 21st Birthday Breakfasts with 130 clients, suppliers and colleagues. These Breakfasts are dedicated to acknowledging our roots and thanking the people who have made a difference to FRI and franchising, as well as introducing the "next generation" FRI team.

Attendees have commented they never realised we had so many talented young people working behind the scenes. As part of the proceedings Greg Nathan introduced our new "Franchisor Wheel of Excellence" which we are very excited about.

The Birthday Breakfasts will continue this month in Sydney. If you are an Australian client or colleague and we have somehow left you off the invitation list please give us a call. We'd love to have you along to join in the celebrations. (International clients, be patient, we are working on a way to also involve you in helping us celebrate this significant year of our operations).
