Franchise researcher10 Thousand Feet has named its ten best franchises in Australia. Has your franchise, or the one you have your eye on, made the list?

Topfranchise’s latest research has again seen mortgage advisory franchise Smartline voted the nation’s top franchise system for the third time.

The list is compiled by research house 10 THOUSAND FEET which says the research is “supported by subscription fees paid by franchisors [to topfranchise .com.au] for surveying their franchisees.”

The full top ten is:

Rank	Company name	How Many Franchisees In Australia SPONSORED CONTENT	How Many Units/ Locations In Australia*
1	Smartline	203	203
2	Mister Minit	86	103
3	Mortgage Choice	318	363
4	Mr Rental	40	67
5	Mrs Fields	24	25
6	Kwik Kopy	90	105
7	Signwave	20	20
8	Anytime Fitness	53	70
9	Snap-on Tools	150	151
10	Gametraders	36	38

The presence of both Smartline and Mortgage Choice means mortgage broking is clearly a very highly-ranked class of franchise. But perhaps surprisingly, Mrs Fields is the only food franchise to make the top ten.

What do you think of the list? Do you think another franchise deserves to be on it? Will it change your franchising decision? Let us know in the comments field below.
