agent network as part of World Travel Holdings (WTH), has earned a
coveted spot on PODER magazine's 5th annual "Top 25 Franchises for
Hispanics" list. Other renowned brands featured on the list include
Burger King, Denny's, SUBWAY, and Liberty Tax Service. Coming in at
an impressive #5, CruiseOne is the only travel
industry player to make this year's list.
"We are proud to be in such esteemed company on this list, but even prouder that we continue paving the way in the travel industry when it comes to Hispanic job creation and franchise ownership," said Dwain Wall, Senior Vice President and General Manager of CruiseOne. "We support and embrace all minorities with innovative training, marketing, support and incentives to help them grow successful travel careers."

To-date, CruiseOne has placed 80 Hispanics into franchise ownership.
PODER magazine's "Top 25 Franchises for Hispanics" list is based on a detailed survey sent to 3,500-plus franchisors headquartered in the U.S. and Canada. Twenty-five companies were chosen based upon the survey's results, which among other things, asked for the number of Hispanic franchisees, as well as the percentage of the franchisor's management team that were Hispanic.
