Kitchen Makeovers is delighted to announce its recognition as one of the premier franchise opportunities in the UK. Standing out among numerous competitors across various sectors, Kitchen Makeovers has jumped 13 places since 2024, securing the no.81 position in the highly regarded Elite Franchise Top 100 (EF100) – a title it will proudly hold throughout 2025.
Since 2017, the EF100, sponsored by HSBC UK, has become a significant fixture in the UK franchising calendar. This ranking evaluates franchisors on numerous criteria, including the scale and speed of their growth, their support to franchisees and their contributions to community prosperity. Such initiatives are essential for the advancement and evolution of the franchising industry. Franchisors strive tirelessly to innovate and improve, aiming for a place in this esteemed league table. Now in its ninth year, the competition is fiercer than ever, with a distinguished panel of judges setting rigorous standards.
Kitchen Makeovers’ founders, Will Frankling and Matt Oakley, launched their first kitchen renovations business in Hertfordshire in 2018. Since then, the brand has quickly established itself as a major player in the UK’s kitchen renovation industry – with over 30 locations delivering high-quality customer experiences and top-value kitchens.
“The resilience and innovation demonstrated in response to the challenges posed by the British business environment is truly commendable,” said Anita Roberts, Franchise Director at HSBC UK and one of this year’s judges. “From navigating economic uncertainties to adapting to shifting consumer trends and technological advancements, franchise brands in the UK consistently rise to the occasion. This spirit of determination and creativity not only drives the evolution of the franchising industry but sets new benchmarks for excellence. It’s a testament to the strong mindset and the unwavering commitment to progress that defines the British franchising community.”
Despite a turbulent and ever-changing economic landscape, franchises such as Kitchen Makeovers have thrived over the past year, thanks to their robust business models and resilient operational structures. Will and Matt’s dedication to supporting every franchisee – providing them with access to a wealth of expert industry knowledge and building them up to their full potential – makes for great opportunities for franchisees to grow their businesses even further.
“We’re absolutely thrilled to be recognised as one of the top franchise opportunities in the UK,” said Will. “This achievement is a testament to the hard work of our team and the dedication of our franchisees, who share our passion for transforming kitchens and delivering exceptional results. As we celebrate this milestone, we remain committed to innovation and growth, ensuring Kitchen Makeovers continues to stand out in the franchising industry throughout 2025 and beyond.”
