Email-gated PDF
A live brief built from public-ready FranchiseCensus profiles. It shows the broader coverage of the U.S. database, then ranks a tighter set of QA-approved brands by published store count so the startup-cost ranges stay attached to rows the site is already prepared to stand behind.

The counters above reflect broader public-ready site coverage. The ranked table below is intentionally narrower and pulls from the QA-approved brand-report catalog.
