Non-notable company that fails WP:NCORP, WP:GNG, and WP:CORPDEPTH. Nothing (content, sources) makes a claim to significance, and a good-faith search turns up any in-depth sources. Sources that do exists are all traceable back to PR Newswire, which is not reliable. The only real claim to notability is the Entrapenuer Magazine claim (Top 25 new franchises), which again is sourced to... PR Newswire. Interviews and quotes from the subject company's website should also be discounted. SamHolt6 (talk) 17:04, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: Appearing as no.25 in a niche list of Top New Franchise companies is not inherently notable and my searches are finding nothing to indicate WP:CORPDEPTH notability. AllyD (talk) 09:03, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: I've added additional sources in an attempt to 1) establish notability and 2) provide reliable secondary sources. I added in the link to Entrepreneur to source the claim that Keyrenter was Entrepreneur's #25 top new franchise in 2017. Considering there are approximately 795,932 franchises in the United States^[1], this ranking by Entrepreneur in my opinion establishes this particular franchise's notability. I've also added in two additional and more reliable sources, franchise.org^[2], and franchisedirect.com^[3], to substantiate additional claims in the article. I feel that these changes are enough to demonstrate Keyrenter's notability, so I suggest keeping the article. Tomrainswrites (talk) 23:40, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The cnbc article [1] notes the growth of franchises, but makes no mention of Keyrenter. The other two sources which were added are both listing websites that are akin to chambers of commerce, wherein companies pay to have their information listed. Thus they generally do not qualify as reliable, in-depth, or most importantly independent sources.--SamHolt6 (talk) 00:11, 16 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Looks like they are advertising their franchises. Notability not established by the refs, they're primary, trivial or press release. Szzuk (talk) 15:52, 21 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - lack of significant coverage. PhilKnight (talk) 01:50, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
