We are thrilled to see the hard work on both ends of the franchise making waves for future success.”

Franchise Business Review’s 17th annual ranking of the 200 best franchise opportunities is evaluated by franchise business owners. The esteemed market research firm performs independent surveys of franchisee satisfaction and employee engagement, providing the only rankings and awards for franchise companies based solely on actual franchisee satisfaction and performance.

“To see our franchise owners adopt our culture, leadership, and brand awareness is a victory in itself,” said Gundlach. “We provide the best training and support for our franchisees to excel in the business. This award proves that British Swim School lives up to its reputation, core values, and internal community. It makes me proud to be a part of such a wonderful establishment.”

British Swim School was among over 300 franchise brands, representing more than 30,000 franchise owners, who participated in Franchise Business Review’s research. British Swim School’s franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions about their experience and satisfaction regarding critical areas of their franchise systems, including training and support, operations, franchisor/franchisee relations, and financial opportunity.

“While the pandemic impacted various business sectors differently, the last 18 months have clearly demonstrated the inherent strengths of the franchise business model. The old franchise adage of 'being in business for yourself, but not by yourself' has never been more important,” said Franchise Business Review founder and CEO Eric Stites. “Thanks to fast innovations, significant support, and responsive crisis management, many franchise brands have emerged stronger from the pandemic, and that is reflected in high franchisee satisfaction.”

For more than 40 years, British Swim School has been dedicated to teaching water survival skills. The franchise teaches an average of 17,000 swimming lessons a week.
