Field Manager Summit


The first Field Manager Summit was held at the Indaba Hotel on the 8th & 9th of November 2010. The two day seminar was held for Franchise field managers who wished to further develop their knowledge of franchise relationships and sharpen their skills in field visits. The summit was attended by 55 delegates who enjoyed presentations from Mike Said of Brand Strategies, Daphna Horowitz of Peac Solutions, John Baladakis of Pick ‘n Pay as well as Brenda Macqueen and Elana Koral of Franchize Directions. The summit was both enjoyable and informative, and we look forward to holding another Field Manager Summit in the coming year.
