## Story

Happy New Year! To celebrate, 1851 rounded up 22 of the most exciting franchise concepts that are positioned to thrive in ‘22.

For anyone considering starting their own business, franchising offers a way to simplify the logistics and optimize the investment. Buying into a franchise solves a lot of headaches, but it also creates one new one: How do you choose which concept to invest in? Especially today with the franchise industry facing several unique challenges heading into 2022 — labor shortages, supply chain disruptions — choosing the right franchise concept has never been more important.

Here are some of our favorite franchise brands that are well-positioned for substantial growth in the next year. Some are powerhouse franchises that are continuing to dominate the industry, while others are emerging concepts pioneering their respective fields. Whether it be legacy food chains navigating the chicken shortage, supplemental childhood education concepts rolling out virtual learning options or home services brands responding to the massive housing boom, all of these brands have adapted well to the COVID-19 pandemic, a struggling supply chain and new consumer behavior in 2021.

That is why they have made our list of favorite franchises as we celebrate the new year and move into 2022.
