Thanks to the continued trust and feedback of our franchise owners, The Glass Guru has once again been named a Top Franchise for 2026 by Franchise Business Review.
This recognition isn’t based on brand buzz, nomination fees, or marketing claims. It’s based on one thing that matters most: franchisee satisfaction.
Each year, Franchise Business Review surveys franchise owners directly to measure how well brands deliver on support, leadership, culture, and financial opportunity. And once again, our franchisees confirmed what we work hard to build every day — a strong, service-led franchise system designed for long-term success.
Built on Franchisee Feedback — Not Hype
Franchise Business Review’s Top Franchise rankings are the only awards in the industry determined entirely by independent, third-party research. For the 2026 rankings, more than 26,000 franchise owners across 330+ brands participated in the survey process.
Franchisees evaluated their experience across 33 key benchmarks, including:
- Training and ongoing support
- Operations and systems
- Franchisor–franchisee relationships
- Leadership and culture
- Financial opportunity and sustainability
The Glass Guru’s results once again placed the brand among the Top 200 franchises nationwide, demonstrating consistency, resilience, and franchisee confidence in the system.
A System Designed to Support Owner Success
The Glass Guru provides residential and commercial glass repair, replacement, and restoration services through a scalable, service-first business model. By focusing on repairing and restoring existing glass — rather than full replacement — franchise owners can offer customers a cost-effective solution while building a business with strong margins and repeat demand.
Just as important, franchisees are backed by centralized operational, marketing, and leadership support designed to help them grow efficiently and sustainably.
What This Recognition Really Means
“Franchisee satisfaction is one of the most reliable indicators of long-term franchise performance,” said Michelle Rowan, President of Franchise Business Review. “This year’s Top Franchise winners significantly outperformed industry averages in leadership, support, culture, and financial opportunity. These brands aren’t just growing — they’re building healthy, resilient systems.”
For The Glass Guru, that validation starts with listening.
“This award is especially meaningful because it comes directly from our franchise owners,” said Dan Frey, CEO of The Glass Guru. “Their feedback reflects the strength of our system and reinforces our commitment to supporting owner success and long-term growth.”
Looking Ahead
We’re grateful for the continued trust of our franchise owners and proud of the work our team does every day to support them. Recognition like this isn’t a finish line — it’s a reminder to keep raising the bar.
Here’s to another year of building, growing, and moving the system forward — together.
