Jeremiah’s Italian Ice Ranked #2 On 2024’s Top New and Emerging Franchises by Entrepreneur

ORLANDO, Fla. – Jeremiah’s Italian Ice – the hottest brand in the frozen dessert category – was recognized as one of the Top New and Emerging Franchises for 2024 in the May/June issue of Entrepreneur magazine. The ranking highlights some of the most promising companies that have begun offering franchise opportunities in the last five years. Jeremiah’s was ranked #2 for the second year in a row out of 150 franchises!
“This ranking is a tremendous honor and shows what our incredible leadership team and franchisees can achieve,” said Michael Keller, CEO and President of Jeremiah’s. “This evaluation shows we are not only continuing our upward growth, but proves we are providing our franchisees with the support they need to grow. We look forward to continuing to share our delicious treats with new communities throughout the nation and reaching new heights throughout 2024.”
The Top New and Emerging Franchises ranking is based on information submitted to Entrepreneur for its annual Franchise 500® and is part of the brand’s continuing effort to best understand and evaluate the ever-changing franchise marketplace. Companies featured on the 2024 list have been offering a franchise opportunity for five years or fewer (since 2019) and were assessed across multiple data points, including unit growth, startup costs and fees, training and support, the parent company’s financial stability, and brand strength.
“The franchising industry is incredibly dynamic, with new brands, segments, products, and services emerging all the time,” says Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine. “This list is like a snapshot of what’s working—which is helpful for anyone surveying the industry at large, or prospective franchisees looking to get in on the ground floor.”
