Popular Veteran's Franchise Categories

There is no limit to the types of franchises that veterans can successfully run, but some categories seem to appeal to veterans more than others. Consider these popular veteran’s franchise opportunities:

Home Improvement Franchises

In an age where quality contractors are hard to find, and fewer and fewer people have DIY skills to handle their own projects, home improvement businesses have a huge opportunity to serve the public. If you are a veteran who has knowledge and experience in one area of home improvement, those skills could be nicely leveraged into a new business opportunity. By partnering with a franchise, the branding will be in place, and you can get to work as soon as possible.

Fitness Franchises

Running a fitness franchise is a lot of work—but if anyone can handle the workload, it’s a veteran. Given the important role that physical fitness plays in the military, this type of business is a natural transition for many people who are moving out of the service. Within the fitness niche, there are many different types of business opportunities to pursue, making it easy to select something that best suits your background.
