## Story

Through Entrepreneur’s continuing effort to best understand and evaluate the ever-changing franchise marketplace, the company’s 44-year-old ranking formula continues to evolve as well. The editorial team researches and assesses several factors that go into the evaluation including costs, fees, size, growth, support, brand strength, 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.

It’s rewarding to know that our franchise family continues to be satisfied with our support and our clients are just as happy as well,” said Tony Zaccario, President and CEO of Stretch Zone. “At Stretch Zone, creating a welcoming environment for everyone, whether it be a franchisee, practitioner or client, is our top priority.”

In addition, Stretch Zone was recently recognized as a 2023 Top 200 Franchise by Franchise Business Review. In the 18th annual ranking, Stretch Zone was ranked 32 in the “Top 50 Large” category.

Stretch Zone was among franchise brands, representing franchise owners, that participated in Franchise Business Review’s research. Stretch Zone’s franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions about their experience and satisfaction regarding training & support, operations, franchisor/franchisee relations, and financial opportunity.
