Companies listed on this page are available to be mapped throughout certain regions or the entire Federal States.
FSA Mappers are strongly encouraged to ensure brands listed below are available in their region before mapping, but brands listed below are available to be mapped with little to no coordination with other state-owners.
Mappers who are interested in coordinating and collaborating on more centrally-planned multi-state businesses should refer to Collab:Federal States/Industries.
FSA state-owners may input franchises located in the Federal States that they would be comfortable with them being mapped either regionally or nationally. This list will be organized by type of business. Some details may also be included, such as where your company is primarily based. If a headquarters is mentioned, make sure to link to it on the map at some point. Feel free to add more franchise types as needed.
When expanding existing franchises, please refer to the icons shown in the tables below to maintain regional continuity, as applicable. When adding new franchises to this list, use the following guidelines to assign a classification to each context region to help guide other mappers. Please avoid adding additional new national brands (available in all nine regions) until a consensus has been reached regarding how to designate national brands in the FSA. (Multi-region brands are welcome.)
Stateowners are other FSA mappers are welcome and encouraged -- but not required -- to use brands listed here when mapping.
International franchises wishing to do business in the Federal States and domestic franchises wishing to go international are subject to certain restrictions.
Foreign companies should not be added to the list and should have minimal presence at this time. Companies that already had a presence before July 2023 will not be removed but should also not be expanded further.
For domestic franchises that wish to expand beyond the Federal States, please see the talk page.
