Franchising Brasil — internationalization program for the franchising sector, provided through a partnership between the Brazilian Franchising Association (ABF) and the Brazilian Exports and Investments Promotion Agency (Apex-Brasil) —  announced today the brands that were awarded with the International Franchise Certificate 2021. 

The certificate aims to recognize the most advanced networks in the internationalization process and engage professionals in international missions, business roundtables, events, and other initiatives. The seal divides the brands into four categories: Full, Senior, Mega, and Master. This segmentation is performed based on the number of units and countries in which the networks are active. 

In total, 52 brands received recognition. Chilli Beans was the only representative of the Master category, which is indicative of an advanced internationalization process. The Mega category included names such as O Boticário, iGUi, Kumon, Maple Bear, Localiza, and Oakberry. To get to know all the brands that were awarded, see the list below.

“In its third edition, the International Franchise Certificate is consolidated as an important recognition for franchises with international strategies”, says Bruno Amado, executive manager of Franchising Brasil. “This seal is already recognized by international investors”, he completes. 

The trophies will be delivered to the 52 brands remotely. See the list of brands and categories in the International Franchise Certificate 2021 here:
