Greece
The evolution of the Greek consumer, knowledgeable and affluent, has resulted in an explosion of franchises in Greece since the mid-1990's. This fact, combined with the strong desire of Greeks to become owners of their own businesses, has been instrumental in the broad acceptance of franchising. It should, therefore, come as no surprise that over 130 international franchise chains have expanded their businesses to Greece with notable success. Additionally, the country's franchise industry enjoys one of the highest annual growth rates within the EU.

I feel better about myself knowing that the care that I give may help someone live a happier life. My greatest reward is in knowing that my presence makes a difference.
