May 9, 2012 - PRLog -- Mr Hani Kafafi, CEO Al Houda Hotels & Tourism opened the Dubai IFF on 24 April at the JW Marriott Dubai with a dynamic address based on his many years of franchising experience. He was followed by presentations and franchise advice from Burger Ranch (Portugal), Condé Nast Restaurants (Hong Kong),  écurie25 (UK),  McAlister’s Deli (USA), Spicy Pickle (USA), Which Wich (USA) as well as national brands as Al Abraaj (UAE), Doner Kebab (UAE), Saj Express (UAE), Zohoor Alreef (KSA).  In all 45 franchised brands were represented by World Franchise Associates.

Murad Alnasur from Prime Hospitality and Kate Withers from DLA Piper, as well as Von Kennedy from Midamar and Sary Hamway from Franexcel provided essential franchise  information for delegates.  The Business meetings on 25 April were particularly important for delegates to follow through with their enquiries and to receive advice from the WFA team.  Commenting on the Dubai IFF this year, Kit Brinkley as WFA Forum organiser, reflected on further developing its success.  “There is no better way of supporting our clients and meeting the needs of investors.  At the Forum we can build crucially important business relationships and bring the right people together.”
