COO at Bluebird Care commented:
 

We are absolutely delighted to have received this recognition from the franchise industry.  It really endorses the strength of the brand and level of support that is provided to help further differentiate our network of franchisees. There is a huge amount of collaborative effort that goes into delivering in excess of 21,000 home care visits each day and we feel very honoured that the Bluebird Care business has been recognised in this way.

Pip Wilkins QFP, Chief Executive at the bfa, said:
 

Bluebird Care’s achievement is truly inspiring and as judges, we couldn’t help but notice the team’s hard work and overall excellence in growing their franchise. We are excited to see how the business shapes itself in the near future.
