The 2025 winners are:

Best Franchise – Business-to-Business – TaxAssist Accountants

Best Franchise – Business-to-Consumer – The Youth Fairy

Best Franchise – Children’s Services – Kidslingo

Best Franchise – Management – GoodOaks Homecare & Molly Maid

Steven Frost, CEO and Founder of WorkBuzz, commented on the awards: “A huge congratulations to all the winners and finalists of the 2025 Best Franchise Awards. These awards stand out because they’re driven by real feedback from thousands of franchisees, providing powerful insights that help franchisors enhance their networks and boost performance. We look forward to continuing to champion excellence throughout the franchising industry in the years to come.”

Suki Dehal, Head of Franchising at sponsors Lloyds Banking Group, said, “I have thoroughly enjoyed learning about the successes and challenges for a number of businesses whilst judging the Workbuzz awards again this year. The finalists all brought great performance to life for us and the calibre was difficult to separate for many categories. I look forward to awarding the winners next week at the conference.”

About the Franchise Satisfaction Benchmark (FSB)

  • The FSB is coordinated by WorkBuzz. The benchmark works by inviting existing franchisees to participate in a confidential online survey which asks them 32 questions about their franchise ownership experience. Using a consistent methodology, the franchise is assigned an overall FSB score. The highest performing franchisors are then recognised in the Best Franchise Awards, sponsored by Lloyds Bank.
