## Story

With one of the highest hiring rates among American brands and one of the lowest signing prices in the industry, Mosquito Joe is making headlines. This year, Franchise Gator, one of the largest franchise directories on the Internet, named Mosquito Joe No. 1 in their list of the Top 100 Fastest Growing Franchises.

As of 2016, the country’s leading mosquito control treatment company currently boasts 113 units—a number that’s more than double their size from a year ago. Mosquito Joe CEO Kevin Wilson believes that the brand’s low investment and promise for high returns (coupled with a never-ending demand for a bug-free backyard) has been the key to their success over the past four years.

“Mosquito Joe continues to outperform projected growth numbers which demonstrates that our franchisees and infrastructure can drive record results,” Wilson said. “In the past year, we’ve been able to enter new communities and effectively triple in size from over a year ago.”

Established to honor some of the top-performing franchises, Franchise Gator’s annual Top 100 was designed to measure the quality of a franchise system over time. Rankings are mostly based on a formula created from various pieces of the Franchise Disclosure Document that focus on financial stability, growth, transparency, engagement, continuity and sustainability. In any given year, hundreds of FDD’s are studied to determine which franchises make the list.

This year, Franchise Gator also ranked Mosquito Joe as No. 16 in their list of the Top 100 Emerging Franchises.

“Last year was an exceptional year for our brand, and our growth proves that we’re providing a vital service to communities while also serving as a premier business option for future franchises,” Wilson said. “Receiving such esteemed recognition from Franchise Gator solidifies our emerging position as a leader in the industry.”
