MIDDLE RIVER, Md. – Image360 announced today that it has once again been named to Entrepreneur magazine’s Franchise 500® list, considered the world’s first, best and most comprehensive franchise ranking. Image360 has been rated number 317 overall.
The prestigious award validates the progress the company has made in the past year. Image360 has over 315 locations currently throughout the United States, Canada and England.
“We are honored to receive this ranking,” said Burke Cueny, vice president of marketing and communications for the Alliance Franchise Brands. "We look forward to building upon this growth in 2019, 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.
“As we celebrate 40 years of producing the Franchise 500, it’s a good opportunity to step back and look at how much has changed since that first ranking in 1980,” says Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur. “While the franchise business model has changed little, the strongest franchise brands are constantly evolving and innovating to keep up with changing trends and technology.”
Image360 provides high quality professional graphic solutions to regional businesses and organizations. From the simplest projects to the most complex, trained graphics specialists work closely with clients to maximize the creativity and visual impact of environmental graphics, mobile graphics, way-finding solutions and trade show displays and retail signage.
Entrepreneurially spirited individuals interested in owning an Image360 franchise should have the ability to invest between the range of $192,357 - $364,090 depending on costs specific to your area.
Over its 40 years in existence, the Franchise 500® has become both a dominant competitive measure for franchisors and a primary research tool for potential franchisees. Image360’s position on the ranking is a testament to its strength as a franchise opportunity.
