5* Franchise Satisfaction

When every franchisor claims to offer great training and support, standing out becomes harder — and franchisees struggle to spot the best opportunities.

We already recognise outstanding franchisors through the Best Franchise Awards.

The 5 Star Franchisee Satisfaction accreditation builds on this by further highlighting those who truly stand out.

How We Measure 5 Star Franchisee Satisfaction

5 Star Franchisee Satisfaction is awarded to a franchisor that receives above average feedback on ALL five of the key areas that we measure:

Franchisors are required to meet these key conditions:

  • Franchisor must operate with at least 10 UK franchisees.
  • Achieve a response rate of at least 60%. Franchisors with 10–19 franchisees must both meet the 60% threshold and provide a minimum of 10 responses.
  • Franchisors must upgrade to access the full report and analysis.
  • The survey captures franchisees’ views at a single point in time. To maintain 5 Star Franchisee Satisfaction status, franchisors are required to resurvey annually.
  • WorkBuzz reserves the right to make the final decision on whether a franchisor is awarded 5 Star Franchisee Satisfaction.
