TAMARAC, Fla. — PuroClean, one of the nation’s leading franchise brands in property restoration and remediation, was recognized as one of the Fastest Growing Franchises in the March/April issue of Entrepreneur magazine and Entrepreneur.com. The brand was also recognized by Franchise Business Review as a 2026 Top Franchise for Women, showcasing not only PuroClean’s commitment to growth, but also how the brand supports and empowers women in a male dominated industry.

“These recognitions reflect what I’ve experienced firsthand within PuroClean,” said Melissa Wittig, PuroClean Franchise Owner with locations in Lynnwod and Tacoma, WA. “As a woman in franchising, it’s especially meaningful to be part of a brand that not only continues to expand, but also creates an environment where women are supported, valued and empowered to succeed.”

Entrepreneur’s Fastest-Growing Franchises ranking is based on over 150 data points submitted for its annual Franchise 500® and is part of the magazine’s continuing effort to best understand and evaluate the ever-changing franchise marketplace.

“The fastest-growing brands have cracked the code on expansion, proving they have the systems and market appeal that savvy entrepreneurs should pay attention to,” says Jason Feifer, Editor-in-Chief of Entrepreneur. “They’re able to continue growing despite economic uncertainty, market shifts and industry changes — and that’s worth a close look.”

Margaret Chebat, Vice President of Franchise Engagement at PuroClean, shared her perspective on the brand’s continued focus on growth and support for Franchise Owners: “Recognition like this shows that the systems and support we provide truly empower our Franchise Owners. Seeing them succeed and grow motivates our team to keep raising the bar.”

Andy Tai, Franchise Owner of Rowland Heights, has earned 2024 Rookie of the Year, a level of excellence that reflects the same drive behind the brand being recognized as one of the fastest-growing franchises in the country.

“PuroClean’s recognition as one of the fastest-growing franchise brands speaks to the strength of the system and the people behind it,” said Tai. “As a Franchise Owner, I’m proud to be part of a brand that continues to grow with purpose while staying focused on delivering Relentless Customer Service and support to our community.”
