Franchise Business Review, an independent market research firm serving the franchise sector, has announced the Top Food Franchises of this year. The award-winning brands on the list were identified based on survey feedback over the past 18 months from 10,500 franchise owners across many of today’s leading food franchise brands.
For this year’s research on the Top Food Franchises, each survey participant was asked franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions about their experience and satisfaction regarding critical areas of their franchise systems including training & support, operations, franchisor/franchisee relations, and financial opportunity.
“The food franchise sector is historically one of the toughest, but delivers a tremendous return on investment for many,” said Eric Stites, CEO of Franchise Business Review. “The key is to choose the right brand. The award-winning brands on our list of the Top Food Franchises rate 15% - 25% higher on average in overall franchisee satisfaction over other food competitors. That data is very telling in that it provides real insight for someone considering investing in a franchise into the companies that are performing well in the areas critical to their franchisees’ success.”
This year's list of our Top Food Franchises includes brands that are outperforming their competitors and franchisees' expectations. We invite you to explore franchise opportunities with these brands that have the highest franchisee satisfaction in the food franchise industry.
