About the Global Franchise Awards

The sixth annual Global Franchise Awards recognize outstanding franchise companies that excel in their respective categories. An independent group of important, objective, and industry experts, working to the criteria developed by the Global Franchise team, shortlists the applications to determine the winners of these Awards. The judges choose one submission from each category that best exemplifies the values that Global Franchise wants to honor using these criteria as a guide.

The previous year saw FASTSIGNS expand exceptionally, with sales for the first time surpassing $700 million. As new franchisees continue to sign up with FASTSIGNS, there are currently over 765 FASTSIGNS locations across eight various countries. Four foreign locations were among the 20 franchises that were granted in 2022 through either conventional franchise agreements or co-branding and conversions.
