Accor Franchise Association ( AFA ), which took place last March in Antibes .
The development of franchising constitutes one of the axes of the Next Adagio strategic plan : in the coming years , 2 / 3 of openings , both in France and abroad , will be carried out using this model , with the objective to reach a percentage of franchises of 35 % before 2030 .
For this , Adagio will be able to rely on the Accor group , a 50 % shareholder , which benefits from a Master Franchise partnership strengthening the growth of the Adagio network beyond its geographical zones , particularly in more distant locations : sub- Saharan Africa , the Middle East or Asia . This mode of operation will in particular make it possible to create a “ combo ” offer bringing together two brands ( Adagio and another brand from the Accor group ) within the same walls , allowing the manager to mutualize areas dedicated to customers or to technical facilities , and to optimise costs .
The strategy of using franchising as a growth driver consolidates Adagio ’ s economic model ; and the balance between the various modes of operation ensures at the same time rigorous management of the brand , the development of innovative concepts like the coliving offer tested in Adagio Original Paris Bercy and soon deployed in Adagio Original London Whitechapel ( both directly operated by Adagio ), the permanent transmission of knowledge and also faster development of the number of sites under the Adagio brand , thanks to the help of partners .
