FASTSIGNS®, a leading franchise in signs, graphics, and visual communications, has been ranked #5 on Entrepreneur magazine’s 2025 Top Franchise for Veterans list. This achievement marks the brand’s eighth consecutive year of recognition, underscoring its longstanding commitment to supporting veteran entrepreneurs.
Transitioning from military service to civilian careers can be challenging, and FASTSIGNS is dedicated to helping veterans find success through franchise ownership. As a proud member of VetFran since 2012, the company offers veterans and first responders 50% off the initial franchise fee and reduced royalties for the first 12 months, helping to lower barriers to small business ownership.
“Most importantly, I want to thank our veterans and first responders for their service to our nation. Their sacrifice and unselfish service is paramount, and we are honored to show our appreciation through FASTSIGNS’ incentive programs,” said Mark Jameson, Chief Development Officer at Propelled Brands. “Our veterans’ dedication, leadership and commitment to excellence strengthens the integrity of our entire network, and this recognition is a testament to both our current success and the promising future ahead.”
Entrepreneur’s annual ranking evaluates franchise systems based on veteran incentives, veteran support efforts, and overall performance in the Franchise 500. For 2025, FASTSIGNS secured the #100 overall ranking and #1 in its category.
“As a veteran, I expect commitment, clarity, and follow-through. FASTSIGNS delivers all three,” said Raymond Yau, owner of FASTSIGNS Rancho Bernardo in San Diego.
FASTSIGNS now operates more than 785 locations, with nearly 10% of its franchisees being veterans — reflecting the brand’s continued dedication to empowering those who have served.
