Contents Restoration Company Hits Growth Spurt Adding 30 New Locations in The Last Three Months Alone.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Blue Kangaroo Packoutz, a leading commercial and residential contents restoration company, has gained nationwide recognition for its innovative contents processing technology that allows their highly-trained technicians to rescue and assess contents inside homes and businesses following man-made or natural disasters. These systems also enable their franchise owners to work seamlessly and collaboratively with insurance companies as they reassess loss and reimbursements.

In 2022, the Blue Kangaroo Packoutz business development team led the brand to new heights, as the fast-growing contents restoration company expanded into 30 new communities in under three months, closing out the year with close to 37 new locations across the country. With no signs of slowing down, Blue Kangaroo Packoutz has more than tripled in size in just one year.

Adding to the brand’s exciting growth and development, Blue Kangaroo Packoutz has been nominated by Entrepreneur Magazine as a ‘Top New and Emerging Franchise’ for the way the franchise has adapted and evolved to the unique challenges that have shaped the industry over the past year.

Heading into 2023, Blue Kangaroo Packoutz is anticipating another year of double-digit unit growth as the concept continues to add savvy business owners to the franchise system. Aspiring entrepreneurs are choosing Blue Kangaroo Packoutz to capitalize on an affordable franchise opportunity in the lucrative contents restoration industry, all while making a positive impact in their community.

“What the brand has achieved in the past four months alone shows the growth trajectory the brand is on as we look ahead in 2023 and beyond.” Said Tim Fagan, President of Blue Kangaroo Packoutz. “The business has valuable elements to help franchise owners succeed. It’s a worthy investment with big potential for financial rewards in a recession-resilient industry. We are essentially helping our customers put their lives back together when they experience loss and going the extra mile to ensure that their’ salvageable contents are fully restored to pre-loss condition. Whether we’re helping people who experience damage from water, fire or smoke, this is incredibly important and rewarding work. That’s why so many franchise owners want to be a part of this journey, serving an important purpose in their community.”

The surge in success is due to Blue Kangaroo Packoutz’s reputation for exceptional customer service in times of crisis and the driving demand for restoration professionals following natural disasters. In addition, its proven business model and unique concept has proven a smart investment in a recession-resilient industry. In addition to the brand’s growing footprint, the business opportunity has helped several entrepreneurs achieve exponential results.

The brand appeals to both existing and new franchisees due to its simple business model and ethos being a part of BELFOR Franchise Group, a family of 13 industry-leading residential and commercial service franchise concepts owned by the worldwide restoration leader BELFOR Property Restoration. This structure and support system has allowed entrepreneurs to build successful businesses in their local community as a result of BELFOR’s family-oriented culture, built-in expansive knowledge, world-class operational expertise, and its ecosystem of connections in the service industry.

Leading with rigorous processes and personal attention to contents care when the unexpected happens, Blue Kangaroo Packoutz has quickly earned customer trust in the markets where it has existing locations. As it looks to expand its geographic footprint to serve the growing need for full-service content restoration on a national scale, the brand is steadily adding ambitious entrepreneurs and new locations in prime markets across the country.

Independent Survey Shows FASTSIGNS Ranks Highest in Franchisee Satisfaction in the Business Service Category Within the Top 200 Franchise Brands.

CARROLLTON, Texas — FASTSIGNS International, Inc., franchisor of FASTSIGNS®, the leading sign, graphics and visual communications franchise, was recently named #1 in the Business Services sector on Franchise Business Review’s list of the Top Franchises for 2023. This is the 18th annual ranking of the 200 best franchise opportunities as rated by franchise business owners. The list is available at https://franchisebusinessreview.com/page/top-franchises/. FASTSIGNS was also identified by Franchise Business Review as being one of only 100 franchises to qualify as a 2022 Recession-Proof Franchise.

“Being named one of Franchise Business Review’s top 200 franchises and the #1 in our category is an immense honor and a testament to the strength of our brand,” said Mark Jameson, Chief Development Officer at Propelled Brands. “This achievement was made possible through the efforts of our franchisees to further establish FASTSIGNS as the go-to resource for visual communications in their communities. This year, we look forward to continuing to deliver quality services to our customers and attracting the best franchise candidates by offering a range of options, from owning a franchise to adapting an existing sign business through a conversion or co-branding with a complementary business.”

Franchise Business Review, a market research firm that performs independent surveys of franchisee satisfaction and employee engagement, provides the only rankings and awards for franchise companies based solely on actual franchisee satisfaction and performance. Franchise Business Review publishes its rankings of the top 200 franchises in its annual Guide to Today’s Top Franchises.

FASTSIGNS was among over 360 franchise brands, representing more than 38,000 franchise owners, that participated in Franchise Business Review’s research. FASTSIGNS’ franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions about their experience and satisfaction regarding critical areas of their franchise systems, including training & support, operations, franchisor/franchisee relations, and financial opportunity.

“When FASTSIGNS pursued us to convert our business, we decided to make the leap after seeing what we could do and what potential support there was for our business growth,” said Karrie Brock, franchisee at FASTSIGNS of Toledo and FASTSIGNS of Maumee. “The network of other FASTSIGNS owners has been the biggest key to our success. Being a part of a larger network that can share ideas, help with solutions and even help produce or install anywhere in the world is priceless.”

FASTSIGNS’ survey data showed the following:

I enjoy being part of this organization: 4.4/5.0
I respect my Franchisor: 4.5/5.0
Senior Management promotes a clear vision for the company: 4.4/5.0
My Franchisor cares about my success: 4.4/5.0
Would you recommend this franchise to others? 4.5/5.0

“Franchisee satisfaction levels hit an all-time high last year despite the pandemic, and we are pleased to report that our 2023 research shows satisfaction has remained sky high—a sure indicator that franchisee satisfaction is a top priority for franchise companies—and that’s good news for franchise owners and anyone thinking about investing in a franchise,” said Michelle Rowan, president & COO of Franchise Business Review. “As an independent research firm, Franchise Business Review is committed to helping prospective franchisees get an objective view of the best franchise opportunities available based on actual feedback from the people who own them. This year, nearly 38,000 franchisees completed our survey, and from there we identified the franchise brands with the highest levels of satisfaction and performance to educate potential buyers about which franchise to invest in. Each of the 200 Franchisee Satisfaction Award winners on this year’s list achieved stellar ratings from their franchisees.”
