No panels. No keynotes.
Just brands and conversations.
Three reasons Ahmedabad is the right city, and June 2026 is the right moment.
India's F&B sector is among the fastest-growing globally. Gujarat alone has a restaurant-density growth rate that outpaces every metro outside Bengaluru. Capital is local. Operators are local. The match efficiency is unmatched.
450+ active franchise opportunities8.4M population. Commonwealth Games 2030. Bullet train. GIFT City. A new international airport. Every condition that converts franchise interest into franchise contracts.

Pre-warmed investor audience
Our final lineup of 50+ curated F&B brands will appear here as exhibitors confirm over the coming weeks.
Five reasons to exhibit. Three stall tiers. One audience that came specifically to find what you have.
Every investor registers in advance with investment range, category interest, and timeline. Walk-ins are not allowed. You're talking to people who came specifically for a brand like yours.
Petpooja's national network of F&B businesses is invited as franchisees-in-waiting. Many are first-time investors. You get an audience pre-conditioned to trust the brands we curate.
Unlike multi-sector expos, every investor here is here for F&B. Zero distraction. Higher meeting conversion. Better-quality conversations from the first handshake to the last sign-off.
Premium directory listing. Brand profile on franchiseconclave.com. Inclusion in press releases. WhatsApp + email blasts to all registered investors. You don't just exhibit — you launch.
Choose from Premium, Classic, or Essential — at Shell Space (turnkey) or Bare Space (custom build) configurations. Active Petpooja-restaurant accounts qualify for a preferential rate.
Whether you're a first-time investor, a multi-unit operator, a family office, or a restaurateur planning your second concept — Franchise Conclave is the most efficient F&B franchise meeting you'll attend this year.

Everything investors and brands ask before they commit.
Franchise Conclave 2026 is India's first dedicated food and beverage (F&B) franchise forum and business expo. Organized as a premier initiative by Petpooja, it is a transaction-focused platform created specifically for serious F&B brands to connect directly and build business partnerships with high-intent investors across Gujarat.
The event will be held over two days on Saturday, 20 June 2026 and Sunday, 21 June 2026 at the state-of-the-art Shree Shakti Convention Centre in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.
Unlike traditional multi-sector exhibitions that suffer from category noise, this event features a "no panels, no keynotes" format on the main floor. We eliminate distracting presentation schedules so founders and buyers can focus 100% of their energy on interactive live food preparation, menu tastings, and dedicated 1:1 business matchmaking.
An Investor is a specific type of visitor — typically a multi-unit operator, corporate group, or individual looking to deploy capital, buy a territory license, and sign franchise agreements directly with the exhibiting brands.
Yes, passes are publicly available and can be secured securely online. You can purchase your entry passes directly through our official ticketing partner at AllEvents.in. We highly recommend booking in advance as slot allocations are capped to maintain floor quality.
The floor will host over 50+ curated F&B brands spanning diverse food sectors, including Quick Service Restaurants (QSR), Cafes, Cloud Kitchen networks, Casual & Fine Dining, Bakeries, Desserts, and Specialty Beverage concepts.
If your restaurant or food brand runs an active subscription on the Petpooja billing network, you qualify for an exclusive User Privilege Discount on your space booking.
Brands can select from three placement tiers — Premium Anchor Positions, Classic Corner Stalls, and Essential One-Side Open Stalls. These spaces are available in two physical configurations: Shell Space — a turnkey setup equipped with your custom name fascia board, spotlights, a presentation table, and chairs. Bare Space — raw floor area giving your marketing team complete creative freedom to fabricate a custom brand experience zone.
Exhibiting brands will have to capture and manage investor leads themselves. We highly recommend coming prepared with your own business scanners, physical logbooks, or digital lead forms at your stall to ensure your sales team tracks and secures the contact information of every interested investor they interact with on the floor.
To maintain high quality and maximize matchmaking ratios, we are strictly capping the floor space to only 50 curated brands. Fill out the exhibitor application form on our website or get in touch directly with our Event Project Head — Hardik Gandhi (+91 63588 70736, hardik.gandhi@petpooja.com).
Browse 50+ vetted F&B franchise opportunities across QSR, café, cloud kitchen, casual dining, bakery, beverages and desserts. Pass approved within 48 hours.
