India's addressable consumer market by 2030, making it the third-largest in the world.

The World Franchise & Licensing Expo (WFLE) is India's leading business investment and growth platform, bringing together ambitious investors, multi-unit operators, master-franchise seekers, franchisors, licensors and global consumer brands.

The expo spotlights opportunities across food and beverage, fashion, beauty, wellness, retail, jewellery, lifestyle and emerging consumer categories. From established franchise systems to new-age licensing models, it shows how brands scale through trusted business formats, local partnerships and adaptable expansion strategies.

Complementing this, IReC x Labels 2026 brings together ideas, innovation and cross-industry partnerships. The evening culminates in the prestigious World Franchise & Licensing Awards, honouring the brands setting new benchmarks in the licensing ecosystem.

I warmly welcome you to WFLE India.
