Franchise Business Review Names HomeWell a Top 2026 Franchise
By Grace Styron


Burkburnett, Texas — March 12, 2026 — HomeWell Care Services, a leading national provider of non-medical home care, was recently named a Top Franchise for 2026 by Franchise Business Review (FBR) for the fifth consecutive year. HomeWell was among just 200 franchise brands, representing thousands of franchise owners participating in FBR’s research.
“Being named by FBR as a Top 2026 Franchise is a meaningful recognition for our organization,” said Crystal Franz, CEO of HomeWell Franchising. “The distinction is a strong reflection of our corporate team’s commitment to franchisee support. From practical tools and resources to ongoing guidance and collaboration, our focus has been on helping franchise owners operate strong, impactful businesses. We’re grateful for the hardworking owners across our system whose dedication and leadership make this recognition possible and continue to move our brand forward every day.”
Unlike awards based on brand awareness or application fees, FBR’s rankings are determined solely by franchisee satisfaction and system performance. To qualify for the award, HomeWell’s franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions about their experience and satisfaction regarding critical areas of their franchise systems, including training & support, operations, franchisor/franchisee relations, and financial opportunity.
“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, demonstrating strength in the areas that matter most to franchise owners: leadership, support, innovation, culture, and financial opportunity. These brands are not just growing, they are building healthy, resilient systems.”
This award closely follows other notable accolades for HomeWell, including its placement on Entrepreneur Magazine’s 2026 Top 500® Franchises. For HomeWell, these distinctions reflect the company’s rapid expansion and investment in franchisee support throughout 2025 — a year marked by a record number of signings and openings. Moving forward, the company has plans to continue expanding and developing new tools to support franchisees within their local markets.
