New master franchise agreements have opened doors in regions spanning Europe, South America, and Asia.

United Franchise Group Accelerates Global Expansion in 2026
With 148 new franchise agreements and 105 locations opened in six months, United Franchise Group is scaling its global footprint across 15 countries. The West Palm Beach-based franchisor, which oversees a diverse portfolio ranging from dining to business consulting, is leveraging master agreements to penetrate markets from Japan to the Caribbean.
Michael White, Chief Development Officer and Director of Global Franchising, attributed the momentum to the company's intensive mentorship model rather than passive expansion. By integrating franchisees into a support system that includes dedicated training facilities and ongoing networking conferences, the group aims to ensure long-term viability for local operators. This infrastructure-first approach remains the cornerstone of UFG’s efforts to maintain its presence in over 60 countries as it prepares for the remainder of the fiscal year.
