First-Ever Top Growth Franchises List Ranks PuroClean for Exceptional Franchise Unit Growth Over the Last Three Years

Tamarac, FL – (September 17, 2020) ? – One of the fastest-growing restoration franchises in the country,

PuroClean today announced that it has been named a top franchise by Entrepreneur Magazine’s first-ever Top Growth Franchises list. Recognizing the top 150 companies with the greatest positive franchise unit growth in North America over a three-year period, PuroClean was ranked on the debut list at number 130.

When Frank Torre and I first joined the PuroClean family in 2015, we knew the company held untapped potential for the exponential growth we
are experiencing today,” said Mark W. Davis, Chairman and CEO of PuroClean. “It is an honor to be recognized among franchises across the country, as we continue to deliver industry-leading support, cutting-edge training, and innovative continuing education.”

To determine the 2020 Top Growth Franchises ranking, Entrepreneur reviewed each company’s U.S. and Canadian franchise numbers over a three-year period (from July 2016 to July 2019, removing COVID-19 impacts). In order to qualify, companies had to have positive growth of at least five units each year. Each franchise was ranked based on a formula that considers their total positive U.S. and Canadian franchise growth over the three years as well as factors that negatively affect growth, such as terminations, non-renewals, and other closures.

"We are proud to be ranked as one of the top growth franchises by Entrepreneur magazine as we continue to provide essential services to property owners across the country,” said Steve White, President and COO of PuroClean. “We strive each and every day to lead with a servant heart and create innovative tools for our franchise owners to deliver relentless customer service to their local communities.”

With 31 new franchise agreements signed since May 1 and 21 new franchise location openings across the country, PuroClean is poised for a strong year of record-breaking growth as a recession-proof company in 2020. PuroClean enables its franchise owners to capitalize on diverse revenue opportunities and offers them unparalleled support. With a strong business-to-business program, as well as a business-to-consumer sales model that has proven effective, the company offers a pathway to success in the recession-proof, multimillion-dollar property damage restoration industry. PuroClean has earned countless accolades for its innovations in franchising, including recognition for its

PuroVet program, which puts military veterans into business ownership. Since the beginning of 2020, Entrepreneur Magazine has awarded PuroClean recognition in its annual franchise 500, fastest-growing franchises, top franchises under $100K, top global franchises and top franchises for veterans.
