Shattering the 8% Ceiling

Franchise ownership is one of the most powerful paths to financial freedom and generational wealth, yet only 8% of franchises in the U.S. are Black-owned. In 2025, we’re setting out to change that by helping 500 aspiring entrepreneurs:

  • Discover Opportunities: Explore over 300 industries, from health and wellness to technology—because franchising isn’t just about restaurants.
  • Demystify the Process: Simplify the journey from interest to ownership with expert guidance and resources.
  • Build Wealth: Create thriving businesses that generate long-term financial independence for you and your family.

Will you be one of the 500 who steps up to own your future?
