“It’s incredible to see several Home Franchise Concepts’ brands recognized in this year’s Entrepreneur Franchise 500®. This acknowledgement reaffirms our commitment to excellence and the unparalleled value that each of our franchises brings to the market,” said Andrew Skehan, CEO of Home Franchise Concepts. “Our brands have demonstrated impressive growth in the past year, with many ascending in their rankings on this year’s awards list compared to their positions in 2023, a clear indication of their dedication to continuous advancement.” 

In Entrepreneur’s continuing effort to best understand and evaluate the ever-changing franchise marketplace, the company’s ranking formula continues to evolve as well. The editorial team researches and assesses several factors, including costs and fees, size and growth, support, brand strength, and financial strength and stability. Each franchise is then given a cumulative score based on an analysis of more than 150 data points, and the 500 franchises with the highest cumulative scores become the Franchise 500® in ranked order.   

“Every brand on the Franchise 500 has its own unique story, but they all collectively make the same statement: Franchising is strong and resilient, is full of innovation and opportunity, and provides a powerful entrepreneurial path for many people,” says Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine. “Our 45th annual ranking is full of companies with fresh ideas, exciting business models, cultural sway, and the kind of business sophistication that will define the next 45 years and beyond.” 

Over its 45 years in existence, the Franchise 500® has become both a dominant competitive measure for franchisors and a primary research tool for potential franchisees. The multiple Home Franchise Concepts’ brands position on the ranking is a testament to each organization’s strength as a franchise opportunity.
