Franchise Direct’s
Top 100 Franchises report
launched in the UK this year andis the first of its kind to exist in the British franchise industry.
The UK Top 100 follows our seminal US Top 100 franchises report, which has been in operation for 10 years. It provides an invaluable tool for anyone seeking to compare franchise systems and is frequently cited by industry professionals across North America.
Our report analysed some of the top franchise businesses operating in the UK today, using information from company-submitted data, published industry sources and third-partyresources. Franchises were ranked using criteria such as revenue, market expansion, growth and number of years in operation. Consideration was also given to franchises that had an environmental policy in place, offered financial assistance to their franchisees or received awards or other forms of recognition. The data was put through Franchise Direct’s ranking methodology to ensure an objective outcome.
Eazi-Apps

Mobile apps are invaluable in the business world and Eazi-Apps’ powerful drag and drop platform makes it very easy for franchisees to offer mobile apps to local business customers.
