Franchising Hot Spots

Now that the New Year is in full swing, we're seeing more and more "What to Watch for in 2009" lists. This morning one such list on Entrepreneur.com caught my eye: Franchising Hot Spots. Being that F.C. Dadson is heavily involved in the franchising industry, it's always exciting to see what markets are poised to break out each year. Interested in getting into the franchising business? Be on the look out for franchises in:
  • Senior Care
  • Frozen Yogurt
  • Pets
  • Children's Services
  • Party/Event-Related Services
  • Fitness
  • Personal Care
  • Green
SPOILER ALERT: Most of these markets are perennial favorites and really come as no surprise. The unexpected list maker of 2009? Party/Event-Related Services. With money being so tight, you'd think that people would be more interested in hosting more low-key affairs. On the other hand, there's probably no better way to forget those financial worries than by throwing a good party!
