For brand owners

List your franchise brand on The Franchise Directory

Get in front of motivated franchise candidates actively comparing brands by industry, investment level, and territory. Claim your existing listing or submit a new brand — it's free to be listed.

Verified ownership

We verify every claim — typically by matching the requester's work email to the brand domain — before granting edit access.

Edit your listing

Update overview, investment range, training, ideal candidate, and contact info. Changes are reviewed by our editors and published quickly.

Manage inquiries

See every candidate who requested information about your brand in a clean workspace inbox. Status, source page, and timeline all included.

Honest rankings

We may earn a referral fee on outbound traffic, but rankings are based on unit count, investment range, and data completeness — never pay-to-play.

How claiming works

  1. Create a free account using your work email at the brand's domain.
  2. Find your brand in our directory and click “Own this brand? Claim listing.”
  3. Our team reviews your claim — usually within 1–2 business days.
  4. Once approved, you'll see your brand in the workspace where you can edit your listing and review inquiries.

Frequently asked

Does it cost anything to be listed?

No. Basic listings are free. We may earn a referral fee when prospects you receive from us proceed through your franchise development pipeline.

Can ranking be purchased?

No. Rankings reflect verified unit count, investment range fit, and data completeness. Sponsored placement, where it exists, is always labeled.
