Islandtime Treasures Named 2013 Military Friendly Franchise

IslandTime Treasures honors military veterans by offering service members and their spouses a 10% discount off the initial franchise fee and startup package, allowing veterans to use their background and training to launch a new civilian career.

"As a U.S. Army veteran, and a founding committee member and past two-term Chairman of the International Franchise Association's VetFran program - we are committed to providing opportunity to all military veterans and their spouses, including Coast Guard and Reserve/Guard components." says Lonnie Helgerson, CFE, Co-Founder and President of IslandTime Treasures. "Our franchise hits a sweet spot for military families, as it is a low-investment, part-time business that can generate extra income for them while they are still in the military or transitioning back to a civilian career." "One in four returning service members indicate interest in owning their own business," said Sean Collins, director for G.I. Jobs. "Franchises are a perfect fit for service members, who bring unparalleled operational skill sets and work ethic but are often unclear how to start a business." Being selected as a Military Friendly Franchise places IslandTime Treasures in an elite group and is testimony to brand's commitment to supporting military veterans interested in franchise opportunities." The 2013 Military Friendly Franchises list was compiled via a data-driven survey overseen by an advisory board of industry experts. The survey results list were independently tested by Ernst & Young based upon the weightings and methodology established by Victory Media.
