DENVER – June 4, 2024 – AlphaGraphics, a leading franchisor of printing and marketing solutions, has been named as one of the 100 brands selected as the Top Franchises for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in 2024 by Entrepreneur magazine.

The list is featured in the May/June issue of Entrepreneur, a leading business and franchise management news magazine.

“Being named one of Entrepreneur’s Top 100 Franchises for DEI is a great honor, and a testament to our company’s core principles,” AlphaGraphics Vice President of Retail Network Development Bill McPherson said. “It is through our diversity and inclusion efforts that we ensure our global workplaces are dynamic, supportive of all team members and representative of our customers and communities. Our dedication to fostering an inclusive atmosphere is reaffirmed by this recognition.”

All of the companies recognized in Entrepreneur’s Top Franchises for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion list were chosen editorially, and are listed in alphabetical order.

The editors based their decisions on information submitted by the companies, as well as their own independent research. Brands were selected for a variety of reasons. Some offer franchise fee discounts and other assistance to help those who identify as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and people of color), women, or LGBTQ+. Some promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in other ways, including the communities they serve and the services they offer; initiatives and programs they have implemented at both the corporate and franchise level; representation among their leadership team, franchisees, and employees; and more.

“Franchising is truly an opportunity that’s available to all, but not everyone is aware that it’s within their reach,” said Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine. “That’s why we want to celebrate the brands that do the most to expand opportunities for everyone—and who are improving their businesses by ensuring that many different voices and experiences are welcomed.”
