Toward the beginning of every year, top organizations in the franchising industry release their annual rankings of the top business ownership opportunities. From Entrepreneur Magazine&rsquo;s Franchise 500 to Franchise Gator&rsquo;s Top 100, these lists are designed to highlight the opportunities that are on the right path. However, there&rsquo;s only one annual ranking that&rsquo;s determined based on a brand&rsquo;s level of franchisee satisfaction: <a href="https://franchisebusinessreview.com/top-franchises/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=franchise-business-review-names-top-business-ownership-opportunities-for-2018-based-exclusively-on-franchisee-satisfaction-2705714" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Franchise Business Review&rsquo;s FBR50 Franchisee Satisfaction Awards</a>.
