“Our experienced leadership team, whose members have all owned and

profitable, even rolling profits back into the business to spur further growth
of the brand,” said Chip Baranowski, Vice President of Franchise Development for
Honest-1 Auto Care. “This ranking validates Honest-1 as not only the leader in
the auto repair and maintenance segment, but also as an emerging player poised
for long-term success throughout the franchise industry.”
Those considered for the “
HOT 100 FRANCHISE LIST” are franchises and business opportunities that exhibit
superlative performance. Franchises included in the list have been chosen from
a crowd of over 3000 different companies, due to their outstanding business
models. Franchises and business
opportunities are ranked based on a variety of factors including management, franchisee
satisfaction, franchise support, growth rate, financial stability and profitability.
“Franchisee satisfaction and support is paramount to our brand’s
longevity and attraction,” said Rick Sage, Director of Marketing of
Honest-1 Auto Care. “Our franchisees validate the support we provide as a
brand. If they need help directing their business, connecting with accounting
firms, or setting up a profitability model, the Honest-1 executive team is
always accessible throughout the franchisor and franchisee relationship.”
Honest-1 continues
to display outstanding growth, with system sales up over 35 percent in 2012. With
plans for 15 new locations in 2013, the brand is well positioned for aggressive
growth this year, as it continues to bring unique auto care solutions to additional
markets across the country.
“We’re looking
forward to a successful and profit driven year in 2013,” said Baranowski. “Our
previous growth and achievements will help us push forward and drive Honest-1
toward even higher numbers.”
