The Franchisee Satisfaction Index (FSI)™ is the industry standard by which the health of a franchise company can be measured and tracked over time. Established by Franchise Business Review in 2007, FSI is a collective assessment of the critical areas of franchisee satisfaction and engagement.



Franchise Business Review has surveyed over 500 of today’s leading franchise brands, representing tens of thousands of franchisees. This data makes our Franchise Satisfaction Index a powerful tool for evaluating franchises, tracking operational performance and predicting future success.



FSI measures: Training & Support, Franchise Operations, Leadership, Core Values, Franchisee Community, Operator Self-Assessment, Financial Performance and General Satisfaction.
