2012 Mega 99 Rankings

We are always on the lookout for big franchisees, the kind who don't run a half dozen units but dozens of units. They're powerful, dominant, and know how to be leaders in their business and communities. That's why again this year we have teamed up with FRANdata to create and publish our annual Mega 99 rankings.
