The 50 Best Franchises for Women

The 50 Best Franchises for Women

Women are increasingly seeking opportunities for business ownership and the franchise model can provide the financial and personal freedom they're looking for. While many women are a great fit for franchising, not all franchise opportunities are a good fit for women.

Women owned businesses generate over $1.6 trillion in revenue every year. And 43 percent of franchises have at least one female owner. Franchising is appealing in many ways - it can provide women with work-life balance and flexibility not typically attainable in the corporate world and offers the support and community that many women desire...if you find the right one.

Clearly, not all franchises are created equal. Franchise Business Review surveyed nearly 6,000 female franchisee across 300 franchise brands to identify the 50 brands with the most highly satisfied female franchisees. The brands on Franchise Business Review’s 2018 list of the Top Franchises for Women were all highly rated by the women who own them.
