For many years, Driver Hire has been a high-ranking franchisor in the HSBC Elite Franchise Top 100. 2026 is the ninth successive year it’s been in the top ten – this year coming in at #7, alongside household names including McDonald’s and Snap-on Tools.
Rankings are based on core criteria that include size, growth, ambitions, contribution made to the wider franchising industry and the community.
To further add to its success story, Driver Hire was nominated for two HSBC Elite Franchise awards in the following categories: Franchisor of the Year ‘Businesses for Sale Innovation’ and ‘Franchise Sustainability’. It’s a past winner of the HSBC Elite Franchise ‘Franchisor of the Year’ award.
Commenting on the latest ranking, Graham Duckworth, Driver Hire’s Franchise Sales Director, said: “As Driver Hire celebrates a record year’s trading – 7% up year-on-year – this is another reason to celebrate. Our latest appearance in the top ten of the Top 100 rankings speaks volumes about the strength of the Driver Hire business model and our franchise support which continues to deliver for our franchisees.”
