It was reported today on Startupsmart (Public service lay-offs fuel surge in franchise enquiries), that the 14000 planned retrenchments and redundancies in the Queensland public service has resulted in a significant increase in enquiry rates for people looking for franchising opportunities :
“Retrenched Queensland public servants have contributed to a renewed interest in franchising, according to Retail Food Group, which saw a 64% spike in inquiries between June and August.”
