Voices of Participants
I find it very useful
It was very interesting because before we came we had in mind like what we'd like but after seeing the brands and meeting the people in charge and involved in the brands it has changed our mind and changed our perspective so I think overall it has been very useful
We have met a few brands that we think is very interesting and has good potential and like we were introduced to some brands that we didn't know before and it was good to find out more about these brands as well so yeah definitely good brands that has great potential overseas
Yeah I think it's important that they have to do their research because what might work in Japan not necessarily will work in their country so it's good to see the operations and look at and study and see what the like with all the cost involved with all the work involved will it actually equal to success or so in their country so I think it's important to do some research and come in person to look at brands, how they operate before deciding if this will be a success in their country as well.
Inspection tours are one step in the search for a good franchise!
