For the past six years, <a href="https://www.qsrmagazine.com/reports/2016-best-franchise-deals?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=qsr-magazine-reveals-their-best-franchise-deals-for-2016-5180" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">QSR Magazine</a> has revealed its list of the top 10 to 12 quick-service and fast-casual concepts that provide franchisees the best return on their investment. But this year&#8217;s list is slightly different. QSR teamed up with <a href="http://franchisebusinessreview.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=qsr-magazine-reveals-their-best-franchise-deals-for-2016-5180" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Franchise Business Review</a> (FBR) to name 2016&#8217;s best franchise deals. The leading market research firm, which specializes in franchisee satisfaction and performance, helps the annual report go beyond companies&#8217; financial success to also look at franchisor support and overall system satisfaction. In an interview with QSR, FBR CEO Eric Stites said, &#8220;When you&#8217;re looking at the totality of a restaurant franchise and the value it delivers for its franchise owners, it&#8217;s absolutely important to understand if the franchise owners are happy and satisfied, because it&#8217;s the collection of everything&#8212;financial, support, and so on&#8212;that drives overall success and makes owners feel that their investment was a worthy one.&#8221; Both QSR and FBR considered a wide range of factors to determine this year&#8217;s best franchise deals, including franchisee satisfaction surveys, management team experience, litigation history, estimated ROI as a factor of average unit volume and average startup costs, unit growth and continuity and momentum. Below is a list of the three brands that stood out to us at 1851 Franchise: <a href="http://checkersfranchising.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=qsr-magazine-reveals-their-best-franchise-deals-for-2016-5180" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Checkers &amp; Rally&#8217;s</a>: With 828 U.S. units&#8212;505 of which are franchised&#8212;the Tampa, Florida-based sister chains are fully aligned with their franchisees. Checkers &amp; Rally&#8217;s has also experienced same-store sales growth for the past five years. <a href="http://www.toppersfranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=qsr-magazine-reveals-their-best-franchise-deals-for-2016-5180" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Toppers Pizza</a>: Over the past three years, Toppers Pizza has doubled its store count to 73 units in the U.S. The Wisconsin-based brand has also tapped into millennial consumers through its commitment to a strong digital presence. <a href="http://franchise.yourpie.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=qsr-magazine-reveals-their-best-franchise-deals-for-2016-5180" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Your Pie</a>: The Georgia-based brand is poised to double its unit count by the end of 2016. Your Pie&#8217;s handcrafted pizzas and selection of craft beers also stand out in the increasingly crowded fast-casual pizza category. <a href="https://www.qsrmagazine.com/reports/2016-best-franchise-deals?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=qsr-magazine-reveals-their-best-franchise-deals-for-2016-5180" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Click here to read the full list</a>.
