The Data Behind the Ratings
This year, we surveyed over 3,500 franchisees from 248 of today’s leading franchise brands to determine the best multi-unit franchises, based 100 percent on franchisee satisfaction. Each survey participant was asked 33 benchmark questions about their franchisor that focused on areas such as leadership, training, and core values, as well as 16 more personal questions concerning their business lifestyle and overall enjoyment of running their franchise. This year, 50 brands made FBR’s top-rated multi-unit franchises list!
FBR’s Survey and Research Methodology
Every year, Franchise Business Review surveys thousands of franchisees from hundreds of leading franchise brands to gauge franchisee satisfaction and performance — and to compile our lists of the top-rated franchise brands. Our independent franchisee satisfaction reviews measure the health of franchise systems that participate in our research, based exclusively on the feedback of franchise owners... the real experts!
