Finland
Franchising continues to be one of the fastest growing business sectors in Finland with a steady annual nine to ten percent growth rate. There are some 160 franchising systems in Finland operating over 6,000 units around the country. Franchising employs over 37,000 people of which some 3,900 are franchise business owners. Population density in urban areas and changes in economic and social factors indicate that franchising will continue expanding into new business areas. Growing demand in the services sector along with increased interest in self-employment is likely to foster new franchising opportunities.

The caregivers that Right at Home employs do not see this as a job, but as a wonderful opportunity to improve or enhance the quality of life for the people they care for. This distinguishes them from other agencies.
