Pillar To Post Named 2013 Military Friendly Franchise ®

May 15, 2013 // Franchising.com // Tampa, FL - Pillar To Post has been ranked in the top 10 percent of all franchises nationwide and named a 2013 Military Friendly Franchise® by Victory Media, publisher of G.I. Jobs.

Pillar To Post supports military veterans by offering service members a 10 percent discount on the franchise fee, allowing veterans to use their background and training to launch a new civilian career.

Pillar To Post has more than 100 military veterans in the system like Andrew Way, a franchise owner in St. Louis. Way became a Pillar To Post franchisee earlier this year after serving in the U.S. Navy as an avionics technician.

“One in four returning service members indicate interest in owning their own business,” said Sean Collins, director for G.I. Jobs. “Franchises are a perfect fit for service members, who bring unparalleled operational skill sets and work ethic but are often unclear how to start a business.”

Being selected as a Military Friendly Franchise® places Pillar To Post in an elite group and is testimony to company’s commitment to supporting military veterans interested in franchise opportunities.”

The 2013 Military Friendly Franchises® list was compiled via a data-driven survey overseen by an advisory board of industry experts. The survey results list were independently tested by Ernst & Young based upon the weightings and methodology established by Victory Media.
