January 18, 2019 // Franchising.com // TEANECK, N.J. - Kumon recently ranked in Entrepreneur magazine’s Franchise 500, the world’s first, best and most comprehensive franchise ranking. Placement in the Franchise 500 is a highly sought-after honor in the franchise industry, as evidenced by the fact that Entrepreneur received more than 1,000 applications this year, making it one of the company’s most competitive rankings ever.

Recognized as an invaluable resource for potential franchisees, the Franchise 500® ranks Kumon as the number one tutoring franchise for its outstanding performance in areas including unit growth, financial strength and stability, and brand power.

“With over 60 years of global operations and our commitment to helping children succeed, we are proud to be recognized once again as number one in our industry category by Entrepreneur,” said Thomas Kuczek, manager of center network development at Kumon North America, Inc. “Our consistently high industry rankings are a testament to our rich history and dedication to helping children reach their true potential.
