Private-sector franchise jobs increased by 27,910 in June, up from 19,160 jobs added in May, according to the ADP National Franchise Report, which measures monthly changes in franchise employment.

“Most of the franchise industries measured by the ADP National Franchise Report recorded employment gains during the month of June 2013,” said Ahu Yildirmaz, senior director of the ADP Research Institute. “Restaurants can be credited for the majority of the growth and are followed by, to a lesser extent, gas stations/auto repair shops, business services, and accommodations. In fact, restaurants added 75 percent of the total 27,910 private-sector franchise jobs last month.”

Restaurants added 21,010 jobs, followed by gas stations/auto repair with 2,750 jobs and business services with 1,360 jobs. Leisure lost 790 jobs and personal services lost 520 jobs.
