With nearly two decades of global franchising under our belts, Express Employment Professionals has worked extremely hard to earn recognition as a Top Global Franchise for another consecutive year.
We’re Proud To Be International Front-Runners
Entrepreneur magazine is considered a gold standard in franchise marketing. To be included in its list of Top Global Franchises means that Express has garnered international recognition because of our reputation as a top staffing franchise, with locations around the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.
Entrepreneur bases its annual Top Global Franchise rankings on these five pillars:
COSTS & FEES
- Franchise fee
- Total investment
- Royalty fees
SUPPORT
- Training times
- Marketing & ops support
- Franchisor infrastructure
- Financing availability
SIZE & GROWTH
- Open & operating units
- Growth rate
- Closures
BRAND STRENGTH
- Social media
- System size
- Years in business
- Years in franchising
FINANCIAL STRENGTH & STABILITY
- Franchisor’s audited financial statements
To create this list of Top Global Franchises, Entrepreneur adjusted its Franchise 500 formula to give extra weight to international size and growth. For companies to be considered, they would have to be seeking new franchisees outside the U.S. and already have a minimum of five units open abroad as of July 2021.
The Proof Is in the Numbers
The staffing and recruiting industries have proven to be resilient and pandemic- and recession-proof. Express has proven itself as a top global franchise, helping lead the way in meeting global demand for staffing solutions. Our proven business model has helped pair job seekers with employers in communities all over the world. Each year, Express helps employ over 552,000 people across 850+ franchise locations globally.
As Express continues to expand into new territories worldwide, we consistently see our existing locations grow. It’s our growth that has gotten us on Entrepreneur’s Top Franchise list for the past eleven years in a row! With immediate market availability in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, we suspect that our growth as a brand, and each of our Franchise Owners’ businesses, will continue to be positive.
Who Should Invest in Our Top Global Franchise?
If the title of an Entrepreneur Top Global Franchise has convinced you to add to your franchise portfolio, you’ve come to the right place. Part of what makes us one of the best franchises to own is that Express Franchise Owners get the freedom of running their own business, while still having access to Express’s decades-worth of expertise, knowledge and support.
“I would recommend owning an Express franchise,” says Australian Franchise Owner Sylvia Elix. “All the training provided is all you need to know. The back office and support are fantastic, but you also get over 850 offices and Franchise Owners around the world that you can call anytime. We also have Express University – it’s mind-blowing to go in and see the learning resources that are available to you and your team.”
Express Franchise Owners have an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for helping their community. Though extremely rewarding, running a top staffing franchise does take endurance, among other things. To ensure you’re a good fit, view our candidate qualifications.
