The Joint Corp. has been named a best buy in franchising by Franchise Times as part of its annual Zor Awards program, designed to recognize brands in 10 of the industry’s most exciting and accessible categories.
The Joint is also one of two brands that received the TOPSCORE FUND Award at the FRANdata Multi-Unit Franchisee Conference in Las Vegas. The award is presented annually to brands that exemplify performance excellence and lender friendliness. The Joint won the TOPSCORE FUND Award in 2021 as well.
“To win the Zor Award is a testament to the booming health and wellness industry, our business model, and our mission as a franchisor – to focus on our franchisees’ success and profitability,” said Peter D. Holt, president and chief executive officer of The Joint Corp. “Coupled with taking home the TOPSCORE FUND award for the second year in a row, it just further highlights our commitment to our franchisees.”
The Zor Awards is an industry-exclusive award program that aids individuals exploring franchising by showing them how to make a selection using an astute business mindset. The Franchise Times editorial staff selected 10 industry categories designed to reflect industry momentum and appealing segments within franchising. After selecting a winner in each category, the editorial team conducted interviews with top-performing franchisees in each brand to share advice and lessons learned.
“There is always a layer of complexity in health care-related franchises,” said Darrell Johnson, CEO of FRANdata. “The Joint has made a complex yet lucrative service accessible to a wide consumer base. This capability coupled with strong unit economics and steady growth has led to one of the highest FUND Scores among their peers.”
