By: HUMAN Healthy Vending |  0 Shares     86 Reads

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) April 18, 2014 - HUMAN ("Helping Unite Mankind And Nutrition"), an award-winning healthy vending franchise and the leading distributor of convenient healthy foods, has ranked on Entrepreneur Magazine's list of Top Homebased Franchises as the #1 vending franchise and #81 overall.

Found in the April issue of the magazine, the Top Homebased Franchises rankings are pulled from companies that both made Entrepreneur's Franchise 500® and offer franchisees the opportunity to own the business without an office space or retail location.

Entrepreneur Magazine's Franchise 500® is the world's first and most comprehensive franchise ranking. Recognized by entrepreneurs and franchisors as a top competitive tool of measurement, the Franchise 500® measures franchises' financial strength and stability, growth rate, and system size.

The Top Homebased Franchises issue also featured a two-page spread on HUMAN franchisees Trevor Hawley and Zach Dirks who are based in Fremont, Calif. and run their HUMAN franchise from a boat. Hawley and Dirks have 17 healthy vending machines in the field and have an exclusive contract with the Fremont Unified School District. Last year, Hawley and Dirks were in the running for the International Franchise Association's "Franchisee of the Year" award.

For those interested in learning the details of Hawley and Dirk's creative set-up and the benefits they're reaping by mitigating the high cost of living in the Bay Area, this particular feature will be of interest.

Hawley and Dirks are quoted in the magazine: "'We've really been successful by thinking outside the box and having an open mind,' Hawley says. 'Now we're starting to reap the fruits of our labor. And honestly, it's probably just going to help us get a bigger boat.' Adds Dirks, 'There's always going to be a bigger boat.'"

"We are proud to be the only vending company listed as a Top Homebased Franchise and even prouder to see our extended family and franchisee partners, Zach and Trevor, in the magazine," said Sean Kelly, CEO and co-founder of HUMAN. "It's wonderful that our business can serve as a viable option for stay-at-home parents, young entrepreneurs and others who want a flexible business opportunity."

The April issue of Entrepreneur magazine is available for purchase now.
