11,000 visitors and more than 200 franchisors attended and exhibited at the event between the 6th and 8th of February at the Reliant Centre. These figures are the largest in the shows eight-year history.

Not only did visitors from 38 states make their way to Houston but also visitors from more than 18 countries were drawn in to this must-attend expo.

Brian Wieters, Vice President of franchise recruitment for Pillar To Post said in a statement. "The first Franchise Expo South in Houston was one of the busiest trade shows I have attended in my 25-year career in franchising. We were very impressed with the number of qualified buyers who were in attendance and expect to close three new franchise deals as a result of the show. I am sure many exhibitors would agree that the show's move to Texas has definitely paid off."
