Dear CFA members,

You are invited to this year’s CFA National Convention! We are thrilled to have you join us as we gather under the theme "Our Community, Our Purpose: Stronger Together." These words capture the essence of what makes our industry so unique: the power of community, collaboration, and shared vision.

Franchising is more than just a business model—it’s a network of entrepreneurs, leaders, and innovators working toward a common goal: creating businesses that benefit communities across Canada. Whether you’re a franchisor, franchisee, supplier, or partner, you are part of something much larger than your individual business. Together, we shape the future of franchising in Canada.

This convention is an opportunity to reflect on the strength we gain from one another. As our industry faces ever-changing challenges, we are never alone. By sharing insights, learning from experts, and building new partnerships, we can continue to grow and adapt in a dynamic marketplace.

The success of the Canadian franchise community is a testament to your hard work and dedication. Together, we have built a resilient and thriving sector—and there’s no limit to what we can achieve when we remain united in purpose and action.

Thank you for being an integral part of the CFA and the franchise community. We look forward to connecting with you throughout the convention, learning from each other, and celebrating the ways in which we are stronger together.

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Sincerely,
