Entrepreneur's Franchise ForecastOur list of the top 10 trending categories for 2016.

What does the future hold for the franchise world? Every December we like to make predictions for which categories will lead the way in the year ahead. Our 10 picks for 2016 range from practical services like outdoor pest control and property management to personal indulgences like baked goods. Some, like fitness and children's enrichment, are well-established but still-growing industries, while others, like salon suites, are newer ideas just coming into their own. Whatever their differences, they all have one thing in common: potential.

You'll find all 10 trending categories on these pages, along with a list of franchise opportunities available in each category -- and some insight into how they made it onto our radar for the coming year.

This list is not a ranking and is not intended as an endorsement of any particular company. No matter what sector of franchising you pursue, always do your research before investing. Read the company's legal documents, consult with an attorney and an accountant and talk to knowledgeable franchisees about their experiences.

1. Baked Goods

Low-carb, schmo-carb! Diet trends haven't put a dent in the growth of franchises offering sweet, wheat-filled treats, like doughnuts, cupcakes, pretzels and cinnamon rolls. The appeal appears to be universal, with many of these companies expanding even faster internationally than in the U.S.
