Notes:
Information
on number of units are
compiled by Entrepreneur
Magazine, Franchise 500,
January 2007 Isuue.
Baskin
Robbins, Canton, MA did not
supply Entrepreneur Magazine
with number of units,
numbers were not available
on their website. They were
listed as #3 in 2006 with
5,124 units.
* These companies’ unit
numbers were not compiled by
Entrepreneur Magazine, but
were gleaned from
information available on
their websites.
** SuperCoups
units affected by new
definition of territory size
from 80,000 households to
60,000 households per unit
made by the Franchisor. It
is unclear whether there was
an increase/decrease in
actual number of
franchisees.
*** Cardsmart
numbers were compiled by
Entrepreneur Magazine, the
parent company Paramount
Holdings filed for Chapter 7
Bankruptcy protection in
July 2006. The future of the
Cardsmart franchise is
unresolved.
**** Resorts
Maps is new to the NEFA Top
30 list this year but not
new to franchising in New
England.
