Think Fast
Don't blink, or else the 100 fastest-growing franchises for 2003 might pass you by.
While many companies are just managing to plod ahead, some are
picking up the pace and offering prospective franchisees a spot on
their fast track. Which franchises have managed to break ahead of
the pack? We combed our data to find out. Without further delay, we
present the 100 franchises that grew fastest over the past
year.
But first, a few important details: All ties are listed
alphabetically. These rankings are based on growth in the number of
franchises from 2001 to 2002, as verified in Entrepreneur's 24th Annual Franchise
500®.
This ranking is not intended to endorse any particular
franchise, but rather to provide a starting point for your
research. Due diligence includes reading all the company's
literature and its Uniform Franchise Offering Circular, calling and
visiting the existing franchisees, and consulting with an attorney
and an accountant. Rushing through the research phase will only
slow you down on the path to franchise success.
