"We're starting the year in our usual way: with our "Mega 99" list of the largest U.S. franchisees, ranked by total number of units. We also feature profiles of six successful multi-unit operators--including a Reconnect with Shirin Kanji; a profile of a former NFL player turned franchisee Jason Avant; and an Under 30 profile with Tommy Hoopsick, who became a franchisee at 19--along with 3 more profiles (see below). Together they provide a broad spectrum of size, industries, and scope of operations. Perhaps more important, each has been successful in their own way and has a unique story to tell--and learn from."
