Mr. Appliance Oakley recently announced that it was named a 2012 Military Friendly Franchise by G.I. Jobs Magazine and ranked by the magazine in its top 10 percent of all franchises nationwide.

The appliance repair company honors military veterans year-round by offering service members a discount of 25 percent off the franchise fee, allowing veterans to use their training and operational skills in a new civilian career.

“The Military Friendly Franchises list was created three years ago out of demand from military veterans, many of whom want to start or own their own business but are unclear where to begin,” said G.I. Jobs Director Sean Collins. “Being selected as a Military Friendly Franchise places Mr. Appliance in this elite group and is testimony to Mr. Appliance’s world-class programs and policies that support military veterans interested in franchise opportunities.”

Mr. Appliance is North America’s leading appliance repair franchise system. Established in 1996, its franchises provide full-service residential and light commercial appliance repair. Mr. Appliance operates more than 150 locations throughout the United States and Canada and is consistently ranked among the top home service franchises by Entrepreneur magazine and other industry experts.
