The country's leading publication on entrepreneurship and small business announces Entrepreneur Philippines' Franchise Awards 2010. Entrepreneur Philippines is published by Summit Media, the leading magazine publisher in the Philippines.

This year, Summit Media extends the application deadline to February 10, 2010.

Now on its fifth year of giving recognition to companies offering the most viable franchise investments in the Philippines, the annual Entrepreneur Franchise Awards honors top companies in each of the following categories:

• Best Homegrown Franchises
• Best Foreign Franchises

Homegrown or local franchise companies in the Philippines may be eligible for evaluation as long as they have been in business for at least three years, and must be franchising for at least one year. They must have a minimum of three branches, at least one of which is company-owned, as of December 31, 2009.

On the other hand, foreign franchisers must be master franchisees that are offering sub-franchises in the Philippines. They must have been in operation for at least two years with a minimum of five territorial units as of December 31, 2009. Furthermore, the winning franchise companies are judged according to their business viability, system stability, potential for growth, and extent of support they give to franchisees.
