(Denver, CO – October 20, 2009) RE/MAX International Inc. has joined the exclusive ranks of the most successful franchise chains in the world, after being named to the Franchise Times Top 200. RE/MAX made its debut in the number 12 position in the 2009 ranking, in front of all other real estate competitors, and in the company of such top franchises as McDonalds, 7-Eleven and Marriott Hotels. “The RE/MAX Network continues to grow because we offer so much value to our franchise owners,” says Margaret Kelly, CEO of RE/MAX International. “Global brand recognition, the industry’s most extensive educational resources, and all the support our offices need to be productive and successful. We like to tell our owners, that at RE/MAX, you’re in business for yourself, but not by yourself.”
Since the beginning of 2009, nine countries have joined the RE/MAX Network and RE/MAX International has sold nearly 400 franchises worldwide. RE/MAX has an international presence in more than 70 countries, more than any of its competitors. The Franchise Times honor is the second time this year that RE/MAX has been recognized in the franchise community. In January, RE/MAX was the highest ranked real estate franchise in Entrepreneur Magazine’s 30th Annual “Franchise 500 Survey,” a tribute the company has received in nine out of the last ten years. RE/MAX has also been recognized as one of the “Top 25 Franchise Opportunities” by Hispanic Enterprise, and one of the “Top 50 Franchises for Minorities” by the National Minority Franchising Initiative. And, in 2009, for the third year in a row, RE/MAX was ranked on the list of America’s “Top 10 Military Spouse-Friendly Employers,” according to Military Spouse Magazine.
