History:

The temporary staffing industry is on track to generate a projected $185 billion in North America annually. Express reached $3.7 billion in sales in 2024 and was ranked as the #1 staffing franchise in Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500 list! New offices average over $1 million in their first 12 months, with mature offices averaging $5.7 million annually.* Plus, as an Express franchise owner, you control your life with flexible weekday hours in a professional business setting. Express is a growing franchise with more than 865 locations and more than 40 years of success.

As an Express Employment Professionals franchisee, you have the opportunity to become a pillar of the community by supporting businesses with workforce solutions as they grow and providing jobs to job seekers when they need it the most. By providing temporary workers when demand fluctuates, and supporting contracts and direct hire needs to fill in for open positions, Express franchisees become a vital piece of local small to medium-sized businesses in their community.
The flexibility of staffing allows companies to fill in the gaps to match payroll and resources, ultimately giving them a competitive edge without committing to the inherent risks that come with additional temporary workers on their payroll.
We offer more than just operational support to our franchisees. By providing multi-step marketing campaigns, sales training, and public relations assistance, our franchise owners can focus on growing their business. Express also offers annual regional and international virtual training events and continued education for staff and owners via our online university.
