Watch this space as 3@1 moves across Africa

Chris Dunn with Uganda licensees

3@1 Franchising has announced the signing of a multi-store agreement for Uganda. This follows the conclusion of a similar agreement in Zambia and the recent opening of the brand’s first store in the country.

3@1 Franchising, the one - stop retail solution for print, courier, photographic and business service needs, launched its international expansion programme in 2015 with the opening of a store in Windhoek, Namibia. Additional outlets are planned for this country in the year ahead. 2016 saw the signing of a master franchise agreement for Zambia with a first store launching in Lusaka in June 2017.

“Ours is an established brand with a strong foothold in South Africa, and we see African expansion as one of the next major opportunities for growth,” says founder and CEO Chris Dunn. “My vision has always been for 3@1 Franchising to expand beyond our borders and become a provider of essential printing, courier, photographic and business solutions in our neighbouring countries.”

Founded in Cape Town in 1999, 3@1 Franchising currently has more than 70 franchise locations open or under development.
