Five HorsePower Brands concepts earned spots on Entrepreneur Magazine’s 2026 Franchise 500, one of the most closely watched rankings in franchising.
This year’s ranked brands include Gatsby Glass at No. 255, Bumble Bee Blinds at No. 266, Stand Strong Fencing at No. 267, Mighty Dog Roofing at No. 283, and Varsity Zone HVAC at No. 421. Each ranking reflects performance across key areas such as growth, financial strength, brand stability, and franchisee support.
“When you see this kind of consistency across multiple brands, it speaks to the people behind the work,” said Tony Hulbert, CEO of HorsePower Brands. “From franchise owners to support teams, these results reflect a shared focus on building strong businesses the right way.”
In addition to the five ranked concepts, several HorsePower Brands franchises were officially recognized as Verified Franchises by Entrepreneur, a designation reserved for brands that met rigorous standards but fell just outside the top 500. Those verified brands include Blingle! Premier Lighting, Groovy Hues Painting, Heroes Lawn Care, and iFOAM.
Together, the rankings and verifications highlight HorsePower Brands’ growing presence in franchising and the strength of its home service-focused portfolio.
