Entrepreneur's annual Franchise 500 rankingf is comprehensive. The franchises honored are judged by the same criteria, in areas such as unit growth, financial strength, stability, and brand power. They also consider the number of years a company has been in business and the length of time it's been franchising, startup costs, litigation, percentage of terminations, and whether the company provides financing.

Ziebart is a 60-year-old, worldwide legacy, franchised brand that offers single unit and master franchise opportunities to qualified investors. The level of U.S. interest continues, with Ziebart stores opening in Morgantown, WV, Lewisville, TX, and Winamac, IN, in early 2019.
