Allegra and Image360 Place on Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500 List
Both companies are featured in the Business Services category.
Marketing and visual communications companies Allegra Marketing Print Mail and Image360, have announced that they have ranked on the Entrepreneur Magazine Franchise 500 list.
Image360 ranked #225 in the “Business Services” category. Allegra followed closely behind with a #247 ranking in the same category, moving up 145 spots since last year’s ranking.
“It’s an enormous honor to be recognized on the Franchise 500 list for over 30 years in a row,” said Burke Cueny, executive vice president marketing for Alliance Franchise Brands, the parent company of Allegra and Image360. “This ranking is a testament to all the hard work and resilience of the Allegra and Image360 teams and our incredible system of franchise members. Kicking off the year with this recognition is a high point for our brands, and we’re eager to keep this momentum going in 2024.”
The key factors that go into the evaluation include costs and fees, size and growth, support, brand strength, and financial strength and stability. Each franchise is 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 ranking order.
In the 45 years since its first release, the Franchise 500 list has become not only a competitive measure for franchisors, but also a primary research tool for those interested in franchising. Allegra and Image360 state that their positions on the list are indicative of their success as franchise organizations.
