Before they determine rankings
Beginning in July 2017, Entrepreneur asked franchisors to fill out an online form and submit a copy of their full current Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) or Canadian Disclosure Document. A total of 1,023 supplied the required information. Submissions were then vetted by an editorial team before being entered for data analysis.
To be eligible to rank, a franchisor must be seeking new franchisees in the U.S. or Canada and must have had a minimum of 10 units open and operating as of July 31, 2017, with at least one franchise located in North America. Companies in Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings were not eligible. Then, each eligible franchisor was scored based on more than 150 data points, and those with the highest cumulative scores became the Franchise 500.
Color Glo International was also ranked amongst Entrepreneurs Top 500 Franchises For Veterans.
