This is part of NRN's annual Next 20 special report, which highlights chains tracked during research for NRN’s annual Top 200 census, and is made up chains whose Latest Year domestic sales fell below the $140.9 million needed to qualify for the Second 100. However, it does not necessarily reflect those chains that would be ranked Nos. 201 through 220 on the basis of reported or estimated Latest-Year U.S. sales.

Below is a breakdown of the major findings from this year's report. Visit the Next 20 homepage for the full report, including rankings and analysis.
