Kitchen Makeovers is entering 2025 with renewed momentum after climbing to 69th place in the Elite Franchise 100, up from 81st the previous year. The ranking positions the brand as the second highest home renovations franchise on the list, reflecting a year marked by steady growth, strong franchisee performance, and increasing confidence in the business model across the UK.
The rise has been driven in part by the brand’s ability to adapt and innovate in a competitive market. Anita Roberts of HSBC UK, sponsor of the Elite Franchise 100, noted the resilience shown by franchise brands over the past year, with Kitchen Makeovers standing out for its continued expansion. Nine new franchisees joined the network, extending the company’s footprint from Colchester to Liverpool and Bournemouth and reinforcing demand for its kitchen refurbishment offering.
For co owner Will Frankling, the ranking confirms what the business has been experiencing on the ground. He described the past year as the strongest in the company’s history, with each new launch underscoring a commitment to supporting franchisees as they build sustainable local businesses. That confidence was reflected in Kitchen Makeovers achieving a five star franchisee satisfaction rating for the first time, a milestone that places it among a small group of highly rated franchise systems.
Individual franchisee stories have further shaped the brand’s success. In Birmingham West, franchisee Guy Clark marked his first anniversary this summer, highlighting the balance he has found between business growth and family life. Such experiences were shared across the network at the mid year conference, where franchisees exchanged insights, challenges, and plans for the future, strengthening a sense of collaboration.
Looking ahead, Kitchen Makeovers is focused on both expansion and deeper support for its existing partners as it moves toward 2026. With plans to grow local teams and enhance operational support, the brand aims to bring its kitchen makeover services to more communities across the UK. Its steady climb in the Elite Franchise 100 suggests a franchise system building long term momentum rather than chasing short term gains.
