Fanyf Bogota

FANYF is more than just a traditional industry trade fair. It is recognized as the leading and uniquely positioned platform for all topics related to franchising in South America. The name FANYF stands for “Feria Internacional de Negocios y Franquicias” and emphasizes its mission to connect business opportunities, innovations, and people with entrepreneurial spirit in a targeted manner. The event takes place once a year at the renowned International Exhibition Center Corferias in Bogotá, one of the most important exhibition venues in Latin America, reflecting the entrepreneurial dynamism and economic identity of the Colombian capital. The organizer is LFM SaS, an experienced industry player dedicated to the sustainable development and professionalization of the franchise market.

FANYF stands out for its well-conceived content. On an exclusive exhibition area, more than 80 franchise systems from six countries present their concepts and business models. Alongside this, the high-caliber “Seminario Internacional” congress addresses key challenges and current trends in international franchising – from growth markets and multi-unit strategies to brand building, financing, innovation, and sustainability. The program is complemented by targeted services for entrepreneurs, including the official franchise directory with information on over 500 systems, individual consultations by experienced consultants, as well as special matchmaking and networking formats that bring together investors, franchise headquarters, and potential franchise partners.

Unlike many other trade fairs, FANYF does not focus on products, but rather on franchise models and innovative business opportunities. Exhibitors and visitors have the opportunity to directly compare franchise concepts from a wide range of sectors – such as gastronomy, retail, services, real estate, telecommunications, beauty & health, fashion, and education – and to evaluate them in terms of investment volume, expansion potential, and sector relevance. The event is aimed in particular at entrepreneurs, investors, young professionals, as well as career changers who are actively seeking new and sustainable business ideas.

As an international industry event with a focus on Latin America, FANYF offers an excellent opportunity to gain a comprehensive overview of current market developments, meet the most important industry players, and establish new partnerships.

With its central location in the heart of Bogotá and excellent accessibility by both public and private transport, the International Exhibition Center Corferias provides the ideal setting for this event. Anyone wishing to experience the future of franchising in one of the world’s most dynamic economic regions will find FANYF to be the perfect entry point.

The Fanyf will take place on 2 days from Wednesday, 26. August to Thursday, 27. August 2026 in Bogota.
