Kitchen Makeovers kicks off 2024 celebrating huge network wide success

The UK’s fast growing kitchen renovations brand, Kitchen Makeovers, has kicked off 2024 celebrating huge network wide successes. For the first time since its inception in just 2018, Kitchen Makeovers – which has made an impressive reputation for its sustainable approach in an industry with a traditionally large carbon footprint – has made it onto the prestigious Elite Franchise Top 100 (EF100) 2024. Ranked second overall for kitchen renovation companies, this is a huge step in the brand’s pursuit of becoming the UK’s answer to cost-effective and high-quality renovation services amid the cost-of-living crisis.

The EF100, established in 2017 in association with HSBC, recognises the sector’s brightest businesses. A panel of 24 specialist judges meticulously assessed Kitchen Makeovers against eight key criteria amongst hundreds of other franchise brands – from the rate of growth and ambition to its ongoing contribution to the communities the brand serves up and down the country. Having increased its annual turnover by a staggering 106% while growing its network by 39% in 2023, Kitchen Makeovers is currently amongst the sector’s highest performing brands. These achievements, as well as Kitchen Makeover’s commitment to embracing innovation and being receptive to the needs of today’s customers, have secured their stance as a leading light within the home renovations industry.

“When assessing candidates, we consider factors such as a franchise’s revenue, expansion and quality of their training and support systems,” said Anita Roberts, Franchise Director at HSBC UK and one of this year’s 24 specialist judges. “Achieving such a high position on this list is a clear testament to the extraordinary achievements of the brands that consistently set the gold standard.”

Scott English, Brand Director of Elite Franchise, extended his congratulations for this significant accomplishment: “Making it into the top 100 is something to be unbelievably proud of. Each year we judge using our key criteria, as well as evaluating the frameworks in place to overcome challenges and creating long-term success. These brands’ attitudes and innovations continue to amaze us, and they deserve all the recognition.”

The franchise industry contributes over £17billion to the UK economy and more than 700,000 people are employed in franchising across the country. Despite a difficult economic climate, the last year has seen franchise brands like Kitchen Makeovers survive and thrive thanks to their robust infrastructure and proven business models. More than ever, consumers are seeking a cost-effective, environmentally friendly and efficient kitchen renovation service as opposed to the traditionally time consuming, unsustainable and expensive approaches.

“Following a year that saw us welcome seven new franchisees and serve hundreds of customers nationwide, it’s an honour to proudly join the list of the UK’s leading franchise brands. We’re immensely proud to have become an established brand on such a widely regarded and prestigious list,” added Kitchen Makeovers’ founder, Will Frankling. “In our ongoing mission to reform and redefine what high-quality, efficient kitchen renovations look like for consumers today, making it onto the EF100 is a huge step forward as we attract more passionate, community-driven entrepreneurs. This is still very much the beginning for us and we’re very excited to expand and evolve in 2024 and beyond with this huge accolade driving us forward.”
