==Overview==
Solar Universe was founded in 2007 by Joseph Bono, the company’s current CEO, after he spent several years as a successful Quiznos franchisee in the Bay Area and saw a need for a comprehensive franchising application in the solar installation industry. After an initial investment of $1 million, the company received $7 million in series B funding in 2011 from RockPort Capital Management.〔(Solar Universe Raises $7 Million To Franchise Solar Installation | TechCrunch )〕〔(Solar Universe Wants to Expand Dealer Franchise With $7 Million Round : Greentech Media )〕 Just two years after its founding, Solar Universe was one of the top 10 solar installers in California.〔(RockPort Capital Management Portfolio: Solar Universe Background )〕 In 2012 Entrepreneur Magazine ranked Solar Universe one of the 50 best new franchise concepts and selected it for the prestigious "Franchise 500," alongside such industry leaders as Subway, 7-Eleven Inc., and McDonalds.〔(Top New Franchises List in Entrepreneur Magazine )〕 Alluding to Bono’s former affiliations and the company’s rapid expansion, Greentech Media once referred to Solar Universe as "the Quizno’s of solar installation."〔
