Franchise Spotlight
-
Franchise owners enjoy a rewarding career helping others make a meaningful impact on people's lives, serving the aging population in their home. We sell and rent ramps and other accessibility solutions to people wishing to remain in their homes rather than go to a nursing home.
-
The popularity of the Bikinis concept stems from our unbeatable combination of great sporting events, great food not typically found in other sports bars, and—of course—great views. So, get off the bench and get in the game!

Locals Love Us is a group of people who believe that there is a lot to love in every community, but that it's not always easy to find. Our world of constant negative news and online attacks can cause us to lose sight of what we really love about where we live. So we gather information/votes on our site, and then we tally and publish the list of the most loved places - everything from roofing contractors to real estate agents and restaurants - in an annual print and online directory. So when you come to town, you don't need to ask the question. We already did. Our passion is to sift through the noise, discover what the locals love and then let everyone know about it.
