# Top 47 franchise networks in Mexico

Tamtam tracks 47 franchise networks headquartered in Mexico. This list ranks all of them by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by FEMSA, Alsea and Grupo Restaurantero Gigante. Their median headcount is 483. Half of them were founded in 1995 or later. The most common headquarters are Mexico City (11), Monterrey (3) and Guadalajara (2).

This selection of large franchise networks in Mexico shows a mix of industries, predominantly in food and beverage services and retail. Companies such as FEMSA, a diversified holding with interests in retail, health, and logistics, and Alsea, a major restaurant operator across Latin America and Europe, are among the largest. Other notable firms include Steren México, an electronics company with a strong franchising system, and Construrama, a network of construction material distributors.

The data indicates a concentration of headquarters in Mexico City and its surrounding areas, reflecting the capital's role as a business hub. While some companies like FEMSA were founded in the late 19th century, many others, such as Spoleto (1999) and CREDITARIA (2000), emerged in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, suggesting a period of growth in the franchising sector.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
