Entrepreneur Magazine

Entrepreneur magazine is committed to reporting on entrepreneurship in every form, from tech start-ups to franchises to large companies. With each issue, they share advice from business experts that can help new companies become future powerhouses.

One tool Entrepreneur provides its readers is the Franchise 500®—the world’s first and most comprehensive franchise ranking. All companies, regardless of size, are judged by the same objective, quantifiable measures of franchise operations, including financial strength and stability, growth rate, and the size of the system.

Entrepreneur has consistently rated Oxi Fresh’s carpet cleaning franchise opportunities as among the best available.

Veterans are owed the respect of society. They’ve put themselves at great personal risk to defend us and deserve to be honored. In our own small way, Oxi Fresh is proud to do that by partnering with VetFran and offering a 10% discount on purchasing a carpet cleaning franchise. That commitment combined with our brand strength, stability, and the support we provide our franchisees has earned us a spot as a Top Franchise for Veterans.
