Leading Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Franchise Builds on 2021 Success, Sets High Growth Goal For Year Ahead.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Carpet and upholstery cleaning franchise leader Chem-Dry experienced the demand for safe, quality, in-home cleaning services first-hand in 2021, leading the brand to leverage the surge in home services spending and provide a means for giving customers cleaner, drier, healthier alternatives to cleaning. The brand closes out a successful year in both franchise development and same-store-sales growth, having exceeded its expansion goal with 72 signed agreements and 65 openings.

“Many of our franchisees are labeling 2021 as their best year yet,” said Ed Quinlan, President of Chem-Dry, part of the BELFOR Franchise Group family of brands. “The past year and a half has shown us just how much our customers are looking for home service capabilities from someone who is local, who they can trust in providing consistent and high-quality services. Our teams continue to work tirelessly to keep our brand and our franchisees ahead of the curve in providing innovative, personalized, high-quality care that delivers on our commitment to making spaces cleaner and healthier. We look forward to another year of growth as we help our franchisees strengthen their community relationships and continue to build on their tremendous success.”

Chem-Dry, the Healthy Home Authority®, currently serves more than 11,000 homes and businesses each day across 55 countries. Over the next 12 months, the 44-year-old brand aims to further increase its North American coverage by adding 75 franchises across the United States and Canada, and expand its global footprint by signing four more international master franchises. Chem-Dry plans to meet this development milestone by mapping out its 2022 business theme, ‘New World of Opportunities.’

While Chem-Dry continues to grow its global footprint, it remains focused on the hyper-local success of its franchisees. Part of the brand’s 2022 vision forward centers on empowering franchisees with additional revenue streams to bolster growth and meet the demands of today’s modern customer.

Chem-Dry has a national partnership with the Indoor Air Quality Association (IAQA), working to raise awareness and provide education on the importance of indoor air quality in maintaining the health and safety of homes and businesses.

Since its launch in 1977, Chem-Dry has become the recognized market leader by building a robust network of 1,800 franchises across the country.

Leading Health and Wellness Concept Sets Sights on National Presence in the New Year.

WILMINGTON, N.C. — Clean Eatz, the one-of-a-kind health and wellness restaurant concept recognized as one of the fastest-growing franchise brands in its sectors, has proven restless over the course of 2021. Widely regarded and recognized for its uniquely-held mission of helping consumers in their pursuit of achieving a healthier, more balanced lifestyle through the incorporation of the brands prepackaged food options and meal plans, the company has only continued to expand over the past twelve months as franchisees buy into the concept in droves for its unrivaled benefits.

With 70 units now in operation and an additional 70 in development, the Clean Eatz team has a fair deal to celebrate closing out 2021. Such a prized benchmark has set ambitions high for the growth of the franchise in 2022, with the goal of reaching 100 units in operation and 100 in development over the course of the next twelve months. It’s anticipated that the expansion of Clean Eatz into new markets will be a leading component in reaching that goal.

Health and wellness has taken center stage amid the trials of the pandemic, leading more people than ever to turn their attention to the Clean Eatz brand, hoping that the convenience and availability of its café and kitchen offerings will help them in introducing a higher degree of fitness and nutrition into their everyday lives. As such, recent years have seen a heightened interest from prospective franchisees who believe in and embody what it means to be a part of the Clean Eatz family, igniting a true movement in the franchise field.

“The message that the Clean Eatz team is working to convey to the public is simple. We change lives. And towards that end, the driving force behind our daily operations is working to bring our brand to as many locales as possible,” said Don Varady, Co-Founder of Clean Eatz. “By doing so, we will not only succeed in furthering the reach of the health benefits inherent in our product line, but in establishing Clean Eatz as a leader in the restaurant franchise industry.”

Franchisees within the Clean Eatz system tend to be fitness enthusiasts first, entrepreneurs second. The like-minded values and purpose behind the franchise are what bring them to the table, and it’s the value of the brands five revenue stream model that keeps them interested. This robust mode of income allows franchisees to yield net profits through dine-in, grab ‘n go, catering, marketplace, and meal plan selections, affording them the flexibility to drive brand awareness on an individual basis while enjoying a simplified management style.

N-Hance Wood Refinishing Sets Sights on New World of Opportunities in 2022, Aims to Award 40 Franchises

Tatyana Stemkovski2022-01-05T11:05:41-05:00January 5th, 2022|Tags: BELFOR Franchise Group, hardwood floor refinishing industry, home remodeling, innovative floor sanding service, kitchen cabinet refinishing, N-Hance Wood Refinishing|

Leader in Cabinet Refinishing & Hardwood Floor Continues to Capitalize on Pandemic-Induced Home Remodeling Surge.

LOGAN, Utah — Consumer demand for home improvement projects remains steadfast – especially as the pandemic-inflected increase in time spent around the house becomes the norm and home costs continue to rise across the country. N-Hance Wood Refinishing® has seen the demand first-hand with some franchise owners reporting double digit increases in consumer leads year-over-year. Prospective franchisees are taking note as N-Hance closed out 2021 with more than 25 new franchise openings and projects to award 40 franchises this year.

While homeowners turned to Do-It-Yourself projects throughout 2020 and 2021, there’s a trend in leaving projects such as big kitchen remodels, home office, and flooring to the professionals, according to the Lending Indicator of Remodeling Activity.

N-Hance’s multi-service offerings model continues to drive revenue for franchisees, while providing customers with quality work. For example, Cabinet Door Replacement has helped grow N-Hance’s average ticket price to nearly $5,000 over the past few years, while reducing labor. Around 53% of its franchisees are offering this service through N-Hance’s preferred vendor, with it generating around 27% of their revenue. All of N-Hance’s cabinet services offerings account for 79% of total revenue.

“With a strong consumer demand for large-scale home renovations, we have worked hard to equip our franchisees with the right tools and resources to deliver on every project and consumer need,” said D’Wayne Tanner, Senior Vice President of Franchise Sales. “Their success is our success. We had a great 2021 which has put us in a position to have an even better 2022.

The classes enable members to become better boxers while gaining the physical and mental wellness benefits that are unique to true boxing-based workouts.

I look forward to further partnering with the TITLE team to bring the fitness and mental benefits of boxing, which have meant so much to me personally, to as many people as possible.”
