We know that as a prospective Franchisee your major concern is security for your investment. Let us put your mind at ease with some facts and figures about the industry itself. The franchising concept is an American phenomenon. With over $1 trillion in sales annually, 40% of all consumer purchases are made through a franchise.
The United States Department of Commerce reports that less than 5% of the nation's franchises fail each year. Compare that to the Small Business Administration's records showing that 90% of all private businesses eventually fail, most of them within the first year. Franchising is a strategy that promotes the dynamic relationship of established business know-how and the entrepreneurial spirit. The result is a win-win situation as evidenced by the Department of Commerce statistics.
According to the National Restaurant Association, the
restaurant industry in the United States is a $426 billion
industry with 11.7 million employees, making it the largest
single employer in the United States! Food service and
lodging managers account for the largest number of
managerial employees in the country: 1.5 million! And this
industry has posted real growth for 11 consecutive years,
despite fragile consumer confidence and economic
uncertainty.
It is a known fact that most restaurants work with recruitment firms when looking for executive and management personnel. Gecko Hospitality has created a name for itself in this highly competitive field and is actively seeking to expand its share of the market by granting franchises in Hawaii, Upstate New York, British Columbia, Canada and Ontario, Canada to qualified individuals.

"Gecko Hospitality has played a vital role in Houlihan's success over the years with its support of our management staffing and recruiting. Whether it is through open houses, career fairs, or direct staffing Gecko hospitality has always been there to provide the support that we need."
