Look Who's Home
The top 101 homebased franchises for 2002
The so-called cocooning trend is spreading beyond sofa dwellers
and is catching on with success-oriented entrepreneurs. While
re-evaluating priorities and seeking balance as well as
opportunity, this new species of franchise is tapping into
homebased businesses' long-term appeal. Fortunately, franchises
are rising to meet the need; more and more of them are allowing
franchisees to work from the comfort of their homes.
Want to run a thriving business without stepping outside your
door? This year's top 101 homebased franchises are listed in
order of their ranking in Entrepreneur's
2002 Franchise 500®, the world's most comprehensive
ranking of franchise companies (Franchise 500® ranking appears
in parentheses).
This ranking is not intended to endorse, promote or recommend
any particular franchise company. Instead, it's meant to be a
tool you can use while doing your personal franchise research,
which should include interviews with existing franchisees, counsel
from your attorney and accountant, and literature such as the
Uniform Franchise Offering Circular. As with any business purchase,
a thorough, independent investigation must always be your first
step toward success.
