Dyno-Rod listed in top 15 of Elite Franchise’s TOP 100

We are thrilled to announce that Dyno-Rod has achieved a top 15 ranking in Elite Franchise’s prestigious list of the UK’s very best franchises.

Widely regarded as Britain’s definitive official list, the HSBC Elite Franchise TOP 100 UK Awards recognises and celebrates excellence within the franchise community.

Franchisors who make the annual list are judged on eight core criteria which gauge entrants on their size, growth, ambitions and contributions made to franchisees and the community. An independent panel of top judges from the franchise sector then score the full top 100 list.

The official ranking and annual guide was published on 6 December 2024 – one of the most announcements in the UK franchising calendar.

A year of success and recognition

Dyno-Rod’s placing in 12th position caps off what has been a phenomenal year of growth, development and recognition for our franchise operations.

Earlier in 2024, we celebrated a double nomination at the BFA HSBC UK British Franchise Awards – which are often referred to as the Oscars of the UK franchising sector.

Dyno-Rod was named a finalist in the Franchisor of the Year – Established category, eventually going on to receive a high commendation.

Meanwhile, our East Anglia & North Essex franchise, led by brothers Richard and Dan Bowyer, was shortlisted for Best in Class Multi-Unit Single Brand. This was a special way to mark this franchise’s landmark 50th anniversary.

All this recognition is further acknowledgement of the success of our transformational franchising strategy. In 2021, we launched our ambitious Good to Great five-year strategy, which has driven significant advancements for Dyno-Rod and franchisees in numerous ways.

Key highlights include diversifying our service offering, which successfully added £25m in revenue to our franchise network, and undertaking an extensive territory mapping project as part of our investment in marketing for new franchisees.

For us to end the year recognised by Elite Franchise as one of the best franchisors in the country serves as further testament to the strength of our network, our pioneering strategies, and the sheer commitment of our franchisees and support teams.

“A proud moment for Dyno-Rod”

“We are absolutely delighted to be named in the top 15 of the HSBC Elite Franchise TOP 100,” said Lee Parry, Dyno-Rod’s Network Performance & Strategy Manager, following the announcement.

“This ranking is a huge honour and a deserved reward for the hard work, innovation, and dedication of everyone across the Dyno-Rod network. It’s been an incredible year for us, with recognition at the BFA Awards, and now this prestigious ranking to end 2024 on a high.

“It’s a proud moment for Dyno-Rod. It inspires us to keep striving for excellence and supporting our franchisees to achieve their goals. We look forward to building on this momentum as we head into another exciting year for the entire Dyno-Rod franchise family.

“Here's to more milestones in 2025 and beyond!”
