The 2022 Buyer's Guide

Many people dream of owning a business. It’s not as crazy or far-fetched as it sounds.

Each year, we compile and print one of the most comprehensive lists of franchise opportunities in the country. The list grew to more than 1,340 companies this year—the result, no doubt, of how the franchising industry has thrived in the past few years, despite the unpredictable economy. Established brands have innovated and grown, new brands have risen, and certain categories (like low-cost brands that can be operated out of your home) are on fire.

We’re confident you’ll be able to find a product or service in our list that syncs with your life’s passion and can show you a pathway to owning and running your own business. These companies have already done the heavy lifting of developing a winning product, identifying a lucrative market for it, and writing the playbook for success. All that’s missing is you.

This list is not intended to endorse, advertise, or recommend a particular company. Be sure to do your own thorough research: Consult with a lawyer and an accountant, read the company’s legal documents, and talk to franchisees who are already in business with the company you are interested in. All information listed on the following pages was provided by the companies and has not been verified for accuracy. We present this listing as a service to our readers.

The $20 Bill That Became Priceless

As I built my snack-food brand, Sun & Swell Foods, I kept hearing the same advice: Hustle for your customers. Never turn down business. Obsessively focus on ROI. So that's what I did-and although my company grew, it wasn't profitable. This began affecting me emotionally. I love my brand and care deeply about its success. Its challenges started to feel like my own.
