Franchise Direct one of the leading franchise and business portals recently published a list of the top 100 global franchises. The list was compiled from "thousands of franchises that have invested in international expansion strategies and have been ranked using an objective and measurable criteria.
This criterion includes:
- System size based on numbers of units
- Sales revenue for the system
- Stability and growth
- Number of years in operation
- Market expansion
The ranking is also based on the implementation of:
- Best practice in the areas of franchisee support and training
- Environmental policy
- Social responsibility"
Interestly, only one UK franchisor -- InterContinental Hotels Group - made the list which is dominated by North American brands. Not surprising is the number of fast food and hotel franchisors!
Thanks fir sharing this nice list.
