About Us

Given that there are over 3,500 active North American franchise systems, it is intimidating for most potential franchisees to begin their search for a franchise that fits their particular needs. As the pre-eminent publisher of nine books on franchising, Source Book Publications provides you with a place to start.

Our staff has broken down the franchising industry into four major segments: food-service franchises, lodging franchises, retail franchises and service-based franchises. A rigorous, in-depth analysis was performed within each group to arrive at what we feel are the top 100 franchises. We evaluated companies on the basis of historical performance, brand equity, market dynamics, franchisee satisfaction, the level of initial training and on-going support, financial stability and other key factors.

Each of the Top 100 Franchise companies featured here appears in the 3rd edition of Bond’s Top Franchises. The 2009 Edition of Bond’s Top 100 Franchises was published in August 2009. For full details about these and other franchise opportunities, we recommend you visit our parent website www.WorldFranchising.com.
