Top Clicked Brand Pages of 2015
A number of brands had a successful 2015.
The world of franchising had a banner year in 2015. The International Franchise Association’s 2015 Franchise Business Economic Outlook Report found that franchise businesses were on pace to grow faster than most other businesses in the economy
The report found that franchise establishments would grow by 1.6 percent year-over-year in 2015 to 781,794 and these businesses will add 247,000 direct jobs in the process; a 2.9 percent increase from 2014. There are many ways a franchise can define success. A store breaking franchise sales records, the expansion in a territory or being a pillar of their community can all be a part of that story. Here are some franchises that achieved those marks and were some of the most visited 1851 Franchise pages of the year:
