AllBusiness.com, a D&B company, just announced its third annual AllBusiness AllStar Franchising Listing for 2011. And who tops the list as best franchise opportunity for 2011? The winner is Subway, based on a number of key business indicators such as growth, Web visibility, longevity, system size and affordability. The recession played a key role in the franchising industry in 2010, with recession-resistant industries making a strong showing according to the experts at AllBusiness.
Finding credit to finance a franchising opportunity remained a challenge, so 2010 saw many franchisors stepping up to help franchisees with special finance options and incentives.
The Top 10 AllStars for 2011 are:
- Subway
- Dunkin’ Donuts
- Pizza Hut
- Hampton Inn/Hampton Inn & Suites
- Jimmy John’s Gourmet Sandwich Shops
- 7-Eleven
- Jack in the Box
