Winnipeg partner Melissa Cattini has successfully completed the Certified Franchise Executive Program (CFE) and obtained her CFE designation.

The CFE Certification Program in Canada is provided by the Canadian Franchise Association (CFA) in partnership with the International Franchise Association (IFA). As the “gold standard” for franchising professional development and expertise, the CFE designation is a symbol of leadership and accomplishment within the national and international franchising community.

Participants in the CFE program complete an impressive array of course offerings in business development, franchise management and leadership. One of the goals of the program is to help established leaders better understand ways to successfully cultivate and support growing franchise systems and enterprises.

Melissa is currently the sole CFE-accredited lawyer practising in Manitoba.

Melissa is the founder and head of the firm’s growing Franchising practice group. The CFE designation further exemplifies her ongoing commitment to elevated professionalism and passion for setting the highest standards in serving Canada’s franchising industry.
