IFPG
International Franchise Professionals Group — a member network of brokers and consultants.
Regions: US, Canada
The International Franchise Professionals Group (IFPG) is a membership organization for franchise brokers, consultants, and vendor partners, functioning as both a referral network and a training/certification body for its member consultants. For a prospective wellness franchise buyer, an IFPG-affiliated consultant has typically completed the organization's training program, which is a modest but real signal of process familiarity versus an unaffiliated individual. As with any consultant network, the franchisor-paid compensation structure still applies — IFPG membership is a training and network credential, not independent, buyer-paid advice.
