U.S. Lawns named a top franchise for veterans

An independent franchisee satisfaction research firm Franchise Business Review identified U.S. Lawns as one of the Top 100 franchises to qualify for its 2017 Top Franchises for Veterans list.

To identify the top brands, Franchise Business Review analyzed 18 months of data from about 25,000 veteran franchise owners representing more than 250 brands regarding their satisfaction with their brands and their likelihood to recommend them to others.

U.S. Lawns franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions about their experience and satisfaction regarding critical areas of their franchise systems, including training and support, operations, franchisor/franchisee relations and financial opportunity.

U.S. Lawns has long supported veterans embarking on a new career after retiring from the military.

“We truly appreciate and value our military veterans,” said U.S. Lawns President Ken Hutcheson. “First for their service to our country. But that’s not all. There’s an experience a veteran brings that fits well in the franchise model. They understand systems, processes and tools – and that gives them an advantage, because they embrace the brand and what it offers from the start."
