TL;DR
Allegra Marketing Print Mail made the Franchise Times Top 500 List with sales growing to $214 million in 2021 and a systemwide sales record in 2022. The company is a chain focused on printing, marketing and mailing services and is the subsidiary of Alliance Franchise Brands.
In 2021 alone, Allegra’s sales grew surpassing $214 million. The company is currently on pace to set a systemwide sales record in 2022.
“It’s such an honor to be recognized by Franchise Times with this ranking,” said Burke Cueny, Vice President of Marketing for Alliance Franchise Brands, the parent company of Allegra Marketing & Print Mail.
Previously the Top 400, Franchise Times expanded its annual ranking to 500 of the largest U.S.- based franchise systems by global systemwide sales to better encompass the biggest brands in franchising, along with promising young concepts in growth mode. The project is the result of a five-month research and reporting effort that leads to the most credible and objective franchise ranking available, said Franchise Times Editor in Chief Laura Michaels.
The collection of systemwide sales data also provides useful insight into the franchise industry’s performance coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic. Every segment gained ground in 2021, with some getting back to or even surpassing pre-pandemic sales.
Based in Plymouth, Michigan, Allegra is a chain focused on printing, marketing and mailing services. The brand was founded in 1976 and became a franchised business the next year.
