G.I. Jobs Magazine has named The Original Basket Boutique, a premier gourmet gift basket franchise, a 2010 Military Friendly Franchise.
This prestigious honor is drawn from a list of over 5,000 companies that have a percentage of new hires or franchises with prior military service, company policies toward National Guard or Reserve service and recruiting efforts that are geared toward the special needs of military personnel and their families. The Military Franchise and Employers list is an excellent resource for military veterans who are looking for opportunities and careers after their military careers have completed.
Our military instills a sense of honor, commitment and a work ethic in our soldiers that are strong traits sought after by franchises and companies. Our military personnel understand flawless execution of duties, how to manage resources, and have accountability of their actions. Military veterans are used to hard work and have the leadership abilities to lead employees by example.
The Original Basket Boutique is well suited for our veterans who have strong leadership skills, and a creative flair to their personalities. Original Basket Boutique franchisees receive extensive training and follow up to help guide new franchise owners toward a successful enterprise. Spouses and partners are welcomed and encouraged with The Original Basket Boutique.
The Original Basket Boutique offers a special franchise fee for veterans, military personnel and military spouses to help them get the start they deserve and have earned for their honored service with our country. The recent Patriot Express Loan from the SBA makes starting businesses even easier for our well deserving veterans.

“We are very proud of this honor as we are also proud of our brave men and women who are currently serving or have served their country with distinction,” said David Beckham, Director of US Franchise Operations, Franchise Owner and Veteran of the US Army. “We would be honored to work with people of such high caliber and quality as our veterans. We are committed to help them to the best of our ability so they can achieve their dreams of owning a business.”
