ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Six BELFOR Franchise Group brands have been recognized as top franchises in Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500®, the world’s first and most comprehensive franchise ranking.

“The Franchise 500® has been the industry’s most trusted source for decades, so it’s an honor to see these BELFOR Franchise Group brands included in this year’s ranking,” said Doug Smith, BELFOR Franchise Group’s senior vice president of franchise development. “We provide each brand powerful franchise systems and support that allow them to inspire passion and drive in their franchisees. Combining the industry’s leading tools and resources with the right vision and people has been the foundation of our success.”

For 45 years, the annual Entrepreneur Franchise 500® has been a highly sought-after honor in the franchise industry and recognized as an invaluable resource for potential franchisees.

“Every brand on the Franchise 500 has its own unique story, but they all collectively make the same statement: Franchising is strong and resilient, is full of innovation and opportunity, and provides a powerful entrepreneurial path for many people,” says Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine. “Our 45th annual ranking is full of companies with fresh ideas, exciting business models, cultural sway, and the kind of business sophistication that will define the next 45 years and beyond.”

In Entrepreneur’s continuing effort to best understand and evaluate the ever-changing franchise marketplace, the company’s ranking formula continues to evolve as well. The editorial team researches and assesses several factors, including costs and fees, size and growth, support, brand strength, and financial strength and stability. Each franchise is then given a cumulative score based on an analysis of more than 150 data points, and the 500 franchises with the highest cumulative scores become the Franchise 500® in ranked order.

Over its 45 years in existence, the Franchise 500® has become both a dominant competitive measure for franchisors and a primary research tool for potential franchisees. The rankings for each of BELFOR’s brands are a testament to their strength as franchise opportunities.

Top Rail Fence Memphis Celebrates Grand Opening at Vesta Home Show Vendor Days

2023-09-05T09:35:39-04:00September 5th, 2023|Tags: , , , |

Local owners want to make professionalism in contracting a priority. 

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Top Rail Fence, the on-time professionals in fence design, quality installation and service, will celebrate the grand opening of its Memphis location at the West Tennessee Home Builders Association’s Vesta Home Show Vendor Days on Wednesday, Sept. 6 at the association’s Collierville, Tennessee office.

“We’re very excited to take this leap into entrepreneurship and want to share our grand opening with local builders,” said Top Rail Fence Memphis co-owner Jack Shannon. “I was born and raised in Memphis, and I have wanted to open a professional and responsible fence contracting company in the area for some time. Showcasing our new fencing company to area contractors at this event is a great way to get started.”

Shannon and his consultant, Adam Hatley, another Memphis native, are determined to ensure that customers will no longer have poor experiences when hiring a property service provider.

“Customer service seems to be lacking throughout the contracting industry,” Hatley said. “We have seen and heard stories of someone hiring a contractor that does not show up or only completes half of the job. We want to bring back the professionalism of the industry. Our word is our bond. If we say we’re going to be there, we’re going to be there.”

Shannon has roots in the contracting industry. His family owned and operated a lumber company in the Memphis area for decades.

“I started working with my father when I was 14,” Shannon said. “I’m hoping to pass Top Rail Fence down to my own son if that is what he chooses to do. It’d be great to create a legacy in the area while getting the opportunity to be my own boss.”

Top Rail Fence is a part of HomeFront Brands, a family of emerging, franchised residential and commercial property service brands that includes Top Rail Fence, Temporary Wall Systems, BiltRite Home Inspections, The Designery, Window Hero Exterior Cleaning Services and Mozzie Dome. Top Rail Fence Memphis offers residential, commercial and farm and ranch fencing options.

Top Rail Fence expands its footprint into Missouri with a St. Charles location

2023-08-14T13:55:14-04:00August 14th, 2023|Tags: , , , |

Local owners want to restore customer service in the property service industry by improving responsiveness and on-time delivery. 

ST. CHARLES, Mo. — Top Rail Fence, the on-time professionals in fence design, quality, installation, and service, is expanding into Missouri with a new location in the St. Charles area. Local owners Jonathan Arnold and Ray Wolff say they want to restore consumer confidence in the property service industry.

“I bought a home during the COVID-19 pandemic and had the worst experience trying to hire home service contractors,” Arnold said. “They would either not show up when they said they were going to or not show up at all. And, I heard from others who had tried to hire contractors that this was a common practice. I want Top Rail Fence St. Charles to be a contractor that does what we say we’re going to do. We’re setting out to change the opinion about contractors in the St. Charles community.”

Wolff also cited the lack of customer service during the pandemic as a catalyst for joining the ranks of the property service industry as an owner. He will serve as the location’s general manager, handling the day-to-day activities of the fencing company and ensuring Top Rail Fence St. Charles exceeds customer expectations.

Arnold is a native Missourian and has lived in the St. Charles/St. Louis area for 27 years. He is a graduate of Western Illinois University in Macomb, Illinois, and has worked in marketing and operations for several media companies and other large corporations throughout his career. He continues to work in operations for a large healthcare organization but eventually wants to spend the majority of his time growing his Top Rail Fence company.

Wolff worked in the financial sector and in corporate compensation where he managed the compensation portfolio for a 24,000-member sales and marketing staff. After working in corporate America for more than 16 years, Wolff decided to pursue his entrepreneurial interests and joined Arnold to open and manage the fencing company.

Arnold said he sees his company as a business with the capacity to grow quickly in his service area.

“This is the Midwest,” he said. “We have big houses and big yards and with big yards come big fences. There is a lot of new growth in this area. The little communities here have grown into bigger communities that now touch one another. There are new homeowners moving in all the time.”

Top Rail Fence St. Charles serves St. Charles, Saint Peters, Troy, O’Fallon, Winfield and Moscow Mills, Missouri. The company offers fencing for residential, commercial and farming customers.

Top Rail Fence is a part of HomeFront Brands, a family of emerging, franchised residential and commercial property service brands that includes Top Rail Fence, Temporary Wall Systems, BiltRite Home Inspections, The Designery, Window Hero Exterior Cleaning Services and Mozzie Dome.

SALT LAKE CITY — Top Rail Fence, the on-time professionals in fence design, quality, installation, and service, announced today the opening of its first Utah branch with a location in the Wasatch Front corridor.

Bennett comes from a large family and said he wants to extend his family-oriented background into his running of the business. He foresees his Top Rail Fence location becoming an integral part of the community.

“We have a close-knit and tight community feel here, and I want my Top Rail Fence location to become part of the fabric of this community,” he said. “I want to take what I’ve learned throughout my professional career on how to establish and maintain strong relationships with our suppliers, contractors and customers and build a company that the community is proud of.”

In 2023, redbox+ Dumpsters is expecting another year of double-digit unit growth by adding individuals to the franchise system who have a desire to be a part of the brand’s upward growth trajectory, be independent and are dedicated to providing the highest level of customer service.

Starting 2023 off strong, redbox+ Dumpsters has been recognized as number one in its category and in the top half of Entrepreneur Magazine’s ‘Franchise 500’ list. Within the past year, the brand was also placed on Franchise Dictionary Magazine’s annual list of the “Top 100 Game Changers”. After reviewing hundreds of entries, Franchise Dictionary Magazine’s editorial team selected redbox+ Dumpsters as a brand that has changed the game, further proving its innovative product line has positioned the brand as a disruptor in its segment.

Additionally, much of redbox+ Dumpsters’ expansion in recent years can be attributed to being acquired by BELFOR Franchise Group, a family of 13 industry-leading residential and commercial service brands owned by the worldwide restoration leader BELFOR Property Restoration. The relationship has brought redbox+ Dumpsters franchise owners tangible benefits and further solidified the brand as one of the most trusted names in the business. This has allowed entrepreneurs to build successful businesses in their local community as a result of BELFOR’s built-in expansive knowledge, operational expertise, and ecosystem of connections in the service industry. So far, the home office team has added three new regional business coaches and a marketing coordinator to support franchisees as the brand scales toward a national footprint.

“We are extremely excited about the growth we’ve seen in the past few years and the growth we see ahead of us,” said Rusty Amarante, president of redbox+ Dumpsters. “A turnkey business model combined with an innovative concept like ours sets franchisees up for success. It’s incredible to see how we are making a positive impact on people’s lives by giving them the opportunity to build a successful business in their communities.”
