We’re proud to unveil this year’s 100 Game Changers – visionary franchise brands that are rewriting the rules of business ownership. Each one was nominated by you, our readers, whose passion and insight spotlight the very best in franchising.

Franchising continues to evolve as one of the most powerful pathways to entrepreneurship. Whether home-based, mobile or brick- and-mortar, today’s franchise opportunities empower people to take control of their future while making a difference in their communities.

This year’s honorees stand out for their innovation, leadership and purpose-driven missions. They are:

• Supporting veterans and diverse owners
• Empowering next-generation entrepreneurs
