Kiddie Academy in Franchise Times Top 400

We’re proud and excited to share with you that Kiddie Academy® Educational Child Care has made another significant jump in one of the most prestigious franchise indexes. We now rank 145 in the 2023 Franchise Times’ Top 400 list. That’s up from a #181 ranking on the 2022 list and up more than 75 spots over the past six years.

Franchise Times has produced its exclusive annual ranking of the largest U.S.-based franchise systems by global systemwide sales for more than two decades. The project is the result of a comprehensive five-month research and reporting effort each year that began in 1999. The Franchise Times research team uses a combination of companies’ voluntary reports and publicly available data, including the franchises’ most recent franchise disclosure documents and Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

“Our rise in this ranking over the past several years reflects the continued strong growth of our system, even throughout the recent economic challenges,” said Broc Silberzahn, Vice President of Franchise Development. “It speaks to the strength and resiliency of our business and the educational child care industry in general. Our brand and business continue to attract entrepreneurs looking to build healthy franchising portfolios.”

This year to date, Kiddie Academy Educational Child Care has awarded 60 new Franchise Agreements, opened 15 new Academies and has secured 31 sites for future Academies. Currently, there are 320 Academies operating in 36 states (including our firsts in Oklahoma, Kentucky and Hawaii) and the District of Columbia.

There’s never been a better time to start your journey to Kiddie Academy franchise ownership, especially if you’re a military veteran. We are a proud participant of the International Franchise Association’s VetFran program. If you are a current or former member of the military, you may qualify for a reduced initial franchise fee of $120,000 (a discount of $25,000 off the standard initial fee)
