Learn the Real Story Behind the Data

It seems we in the franchise industry have got the secret sauce because there are some important ways the franchise business model is impacting the economic recovery. Here are the discoveries found inside the IFA’s 2021 Economic Outlook.

Addressing Economic Inequality Since hotel and leisure sectors tend to employ lower-paid and lower-skilled workers, franchise rehiring in these sectors will also help minimize economic inequality.
Employing Low-Skilled Workers Franchise employment can also help address the income inequality issue by creating jobs for low-skilled workers, especially in the restaurant hospitality industries.
Job Creation Based on the ADP’s National Franchise Employment Report, as of November 2020, franchise jobs have sustained six-months of consecutive growth since June, with an average of 25,200 new openings per month.
Addressing Those Hardest Hit Populations Franchising is an important source of low-skilled employment that does not require a college degree, exactly the sector of the population hardest hit by the recession.

There are more stories behind the data, and you can hear it from the experts in the IFA’s 2021 Economic Outlook Webinar series.
