TaxAssist Accountants nominated for Best Franchise award

TaxAssist Accountants has been announced as a finalist in 2020 The Best Franchise Awards’ £10m+ Network Turnover category.

The awards scheme, which is sponsored by Lloyds Bank, uses franchisee feedback gathered by WorkBuzz to find the best franchises in operation. As part of the Franchise Satisfaction Benchmark Survey, business owners across the UK rate their franchisor across several different categories, including training, working relationships and likelihood of recommending the franchise.

When the results came in, TaxAssist Accountants was given a 5 Star Franchise Satisfaction Award for the eighth year in a row. Now, it’s hoping to take home the prize for the best franchise overall in the £10m+ network turnover category.

Karl Sandall, the bookkeeping and accounting franchise’s Chief Executive Director, said,

“We are delighted to be nominated yet again for a Best Franchise Award. These awards are always extra special because they are based on positive feedback from our network of franchisees.

“In what have been very turbulent and challenging months for everybody, it is highly rewarding for our 60-strong Support Team to have their outstanding hard work and achievements recognised in this way.”

Steven Frost, CEO of WorkBuzz, said,

“The pandemic has put unprecedented pressure on virtually every type of business, including franchises. What makes these franchisors special is how they have shown leadership and supported their franchise networks during difficult times, with many innovating their way out of the crisis.

“They should be proud of what they’ve achieved and the difference they’ve made to their franchisees.”

Although the winners are usually announced at the annual Best Franchise Conference, nominees will be able to take part in a virtual ceremony this year, on Wednesday 10th February.
