(Toronto, ON)---BEVINCO, the global leader in profit control and revenue enhancement service for bars and restaurants, ranks as one of the top 200 franchise systems in the U.S. according to the January 2010 issue of Entrepreneur magazine.

 BEVINCO was ranked 178 overall in this year’s Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500®, a significant improvement over last year’s 264 ranking. Additionally, BEVINCO was ranked as a top low-cost franchise (42); top home-based (51) and one of America’s top global franchises (140).

BEVINCO franchise sales have increased approximately 40% since 2008 and the company expects to continue and surpass that growth in 2010.

“We are very proud of our rankings this year,” said Barry Driedger, BEVINCO’s founder and president. “Moving up nearly 100 spots on the list shows how much we’ve invested into our business and our franchisees over the past year; a year when many franchisors were just trying to stay afloat.”

Our goal and expectation is that we will double our Franchise network over the next few years, ensuring that ALL domestic and foreign markets have representatives in place to service the needs of our rapidly growing client base.”
