FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Jan. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Dream Vacations is ranked #1 franchise in the travel category and #41 overall in Entrepreneur's Franchise 500®, the world's first and most comprehensive franchise ranking. For 46 years, achieving placement on the annual Entrepreneur Franchise 500 has been a highly sought-after honor in the franchise industry and is recognized as an invaluable resource for potential franchisees. Dream Vacations is recognized for its outstanding performance in areas including unit growth, financial strength and stability, and brand power.
"Earning a spot in the Franchise 500 is always an honor and is something we're incredibly proud of," said Drew Daly, senior vice president and general manager for Dream Vacations. "It's a reflection of the passion and commitment of our franchise owners and headquarters team, who work tirelessly to create amazing travel experiences while building thriving businesses. This recognition underscores what we've always known—that Dream Vacations is not just a franchise; it's a gateway to turning dreams into reality for both travelers and entrepreneurs."
In Entrepreneur's continuing effort to best understand and evaluate the ever-changing franchise marketplace, the company's 46-year-old ranking formula continues to evolve as well. The editorial team researches and assesses several factors, including costs and fees, size and growth, support, brand strength, and 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.
Over its 46 years in existence, the Franchise 500 has become both a dominant competitive measure for franchisors and a primary research tool for potential franchisees. Dream Vacation's position on the ranking is a testament to its strength as a franchise opportunity.
"The Franchise 500 is more than a list. It's really a collection of life-changing opportunities, featuring strong and resilient brands that future franchisees will be proud to be a part of," says Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine.
