MY SALON Suite’s ranking on the Entrepreneur Franchise 500 list

MY SALON Suite announced today that it has been named to Entrepreneur magazine’s Franchise 500® list, considered the world’s first, best and most comprehensive franchise ranking. MY SALON Suite has been rated #141 overall, raking in the top half.
 
The prestigious award validates the progress the company has made in the past year. In 2016, the brand added more than five new locations, bringing the total to 30 plus locations to communities throughout the United States.
 
“We are honored to receive this ranking,” said Ken McAlister, CEO and vice president of real estate for MY SALON Suite. “We look forward to building upon this growth in 2017, as we form new relationships, expand into new markets and offer our existing franchisees continued support.”

The key factors that go into Entrepreneur’s evaluation include costs and fees, size and growth, support, brand strength, and financial strength and stability. All franchises are given a cumulative score based on more than 150 data points, and the 500 franchises with the highest cumulative scores become the Franchise 500® in ranking order.
 
“We spend months gathering and crunching data in order to produce the Franchise 500 ranking. We’re proud of the result and the way it continues to be a resource for the franchise community,” says Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur. “Like every industry, franchising is ever-evolving and must smartly react to new technologies and consumer demands. We know it takes a lot to stay competitive and are excited to celebrate those that do it best.”
