United Franchise Group has been rated number one on the South Florida Business Journal’s 2026 Best Places to Work list for large companies with over 100 employees. The recognition is based on employee feedback gathered through confidential online surveys administered by Quantum Workplace, covering topics from compensation and benefits to trust in senior leadership and overall engagement.
The South Florida Business Journal noted that United Franchise Group has earned a reputation as an employee-focused workplace by cultivating a people-first culture that empowers employees to thrive. The publication praised UFG for investing in employee growth, connection, and wellness through initiatives such as coaching and mentorship programs, lifelong learning via the UFG Academy, and various events designed to foster engagement, camaraderie, and well-being. It also highlighted events beyond the workplace that strengthen employee bonds, including Bring Your Child to Work Day, company picnics, and holiday celebrations.
Ray Titus, UFG’s chairman, founder and CEO, said the honor reflects the company’s commitment to its people. What an incredible honor to be recognized along with all the other local companies who help create amazing job opportunities in the South Florida market and beyond, Titus stated. Our commitment to investing in our people and cultivating a strong culture creates a meaningful impact for employees and franchisees. It’s the dedication of every individual that drives our shared success.
Titus emphasized that a strong culture directly fuels performance across UFG’s brands worldwide. We want UFG to be more than a place to work; it should be a place to grow, belong and make an impact. The fact that our employees recognize and appreciate our efforts means everything to us, he added. UFG was named first among 20 companies in its category for the annual ranking.
