The recognition follows the company’s 13th consecutive 5-Star Franchisee Satisfaction Award, based on outstanding feedback from franchisees across the UK.
Earlier this year, TaxAssist Accountants franchisees completed an independent survey conducted by WorkBuzz, where they were asked to anonymously provide feedback on areas including initial training, ongoing support, their relationship with the franchisor and whether they would recommend the franchise to a prospective franchisee. The top performing franchisors were then shortlisted as finalists for this year’s Best Franchise Awards.
James Mattam, Group Director of Franchising, said: “We’re tremendously proud to have received 5-Star Franchisee Satisfaction and to once again be recognised as one of the top-performing franchisors in the UK. These awards are always extra special and highly valued because they are based on positive feedback from our network of franchisees.
“We continually evolve and enhance our franchise offering and we look forward to sharing with the judges the exciting initiatives we’ve introduced in 2025 to drive franchisee growth and profitability.”
Steven Frost, CEO and founder of WorkBuzz, commented: “We’re delighted to recognise this year’s finalists in the Best Franchise Awards. Each of these franchisors has demonstrated an outstanding commitment to their franchisees, creating the right culture, support and opportunities for them to thrive. Being shortlisted is a tremendous achievement and reflects the hard work and dedication behind these exceptional franchise networks.”
The winners of the Best Franchise Awards 2025 will be announced on the 6th November during the British Franchise Association (bfa) Annual Conference, supported by WorkBuzz. The event brings together franchise professionals from across the UK to celebrate excellence and share best practice within the sector.
