Master Franchise Owner, Matt Sole of Anago Northern California, Expands Commercial Cleaning Small Business Ownership Opportunities throughout Arizona.

PHOENIX — Anago Cleaning Systems, an industry-leading commercial cleaning franchise with over 45 territories and 1,700 Unit Franchises throughout the U.S. and Canada, announced its newest Master Franchise expansion in the great state of Arizona. Matt Sole, who owns and operates Anago’s Master Franchise operations in Northern California, expands his commercial cleaning operations in the Grand Canyon state, bringing small business ownership opportunities to a larger population in the western United States.

Matt’s story started in 2005 when his father purchased the Master Franchise operations in the San Francisco Bay Area. Matt’s career with a public accounting firm ended when he decided to buy out his father, who was ready to retire. Matt expanded Anago of the Bay Area into Sacramento and renamed his company Anago of Northern California while setting sights on further expansion. After several years at the helm and successfully navigating his company through some of the strictest COVID mandates, Matt capitalized on the opportunity to purchase the Master Franchise operations in Arizona with a strong focus on expanding throughout the Phoenix Valley into other parts of the state.

“We are excited to take control of the Master Franchise territory of Arizona,” said Matt. “Our success in Northern California has taught us a great deal, and we look forward to working toward creating small business ownership pathways for Arizona’s community of interested entrepreneurs.”

In a recent American Legislative Exchange Council analysis, Arizona ranked No. 1 for economic performance based on the state’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), population, and job growth. Its low tax rates, business credits, limited regulations, sunny weather, and low cost of living have made it a draw for businesses. These healthy indicators encourage small business owners across the state, ready to seize new opportunities and pursue economic growth.

Recently, Anago Cleaning Systems was recognized by Franchise Business Review as a leading, recession-resistant franchise for its strength, viability, and profitability during strained economic times. Additionally, Anago Cleaning Systems topped the list of best franchises for minority entrepreneurs and was recently featured by Black Enterprise Magazine as the #1 Franchise for Black Entrepreneurs.

“Matt is an exemplary Master Franchise owner, bringing institutional knowledge of commercial cleaning franchise operations along with the business, finance, and leadership qualities that made him successful in Northern California,” said Adam Povlitz, CEO & President of Anago Cleaning Systems. “We’re excited to support his expansion into Arizona and the continuance of building opportunities for people interested in launching their own small business through the Anago Unit Franchise model.”

Because of this strong business ethic, history of growth, and business-friendly franchise program, Anago is consistently recognized by industry peers, including its regular inclusion within Entrepreneur’s suite of ranking systems. Anago has earned top positions for several years in the magazine’s main rankings. These include Franchise 500, Fastest Growing Franchise, Top-Ranked Franchises Under $50K, Top Home-Based Franchise, and Top Global Franchise. Anago Cleaning Systems’ continued inclusion within these rankings demonstrates the brand’s rising popularity with franchisees and clients.

“Anago Cleaning Systems is a pioneer of the master franchise system, allowing successful professionals to operate their regional franchises while allowing small businesses to invest in their success,” added Povlitz. “Both levels simply focus on running their business while we provide the marketing technologies, sales support, and critical tools to grow. We expect continued growth and expansion in 2022 and beyond, as an industry.”

The Anago of Phoenix office is located at 1225 S. 48th Street, Suite 2, Tempe, AZ 85281. To explore unit franchise opportunities with Anago of Phoenix, contact Matt Sole at 480-771-2703 or email Matt.Sole@AnagoNorCal.com.

Take 5 Oil Change® expands total footprint to over 800 locations across the U.S. and Canada, with over 950 additional locations in pipeline, providing a multiyear runway for growth.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Driven Brands Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: DRVN) (“Driven Brands” or the “Company”) the largest automotive aftermarket company in North America, announced today that Take 5 Oil Change® opened its 200th U.S. franchised location this week, in Hutto, Texas. Ranked in Entrepreneur magazine’s 2022 list of the Fastest-Growing Franchises, Take 5 Oil Change® has doubled its U.S. franchise store count over the last year.

Since acquiring Take 5 Oil Change® in 2016 with its differentiated fast, friendly, 10-minute stay-in-you-car oil change model, Driven Brands has scaled the business from less than 50 locations to more than 800 company-operated and franchised locations across the U.S. and Canada today. Franchise openings have accelerated as the differentiated speed and service of the Take 5 Oil Change® offering continues to resonate with consumers and drive strong unit level economics and high return on investment.

“The Take 5 Oil Change® team has done a phenomenal job at taking a differentiated go-to-market strategy and building it into one of the most well-respected brands in the category. We offer a simple operating model with compelling unit level economics and operate in a highly fragmented industry that provides us with a significant runway for growth,” said Danny Rivera, EVP and Group President of Maintenance at Driven Brands. “That momentum has continued with an expanded pipeline of over 950 future locations, primarily franchised, that provide us strong visibility into unit growth over the next few years.”

Take 5 Oil Change® franchisees are often multi-unit developers and operators who commit to opening multiple locations in a geographic region. Given the strong return on investment, many franchisees are already signing their second multi-location development agreement. The 200^th U.S. franchisee, Larry King is a longtime CARSTAR® franchise owner, who expanded his Driven Brands relationship to also own and manage four Take 5 Oil Change® locations, with two more to open later this year.

Take 5 Oil Change® is a quick lube service featuring a unique drive-thru concept that allows customers to never leave the comfort of their car. It offers a convenience to retail and commercial customers with a simple operating model and focused menu that enables industry-leading speed of service.

Tatyana Stemkovski2022-10-07T10:02:44-04:00October 7th, 2022|Tags: assistance to seniors, Caring Senior Service, non-medical senior home care services, senior care|

The non-medical home care company enters the exclusive annual ranking at No. 479, joining heavy hitters like McDonald’s and 7-Eleven.

SAN ANTONIO — Caring Senior Service, a non-medical home care company with more than 50 locations throughout the United States, today announced it has made its debut on the Franchise Times Top 500, an exclusive annual ranking of the largest franchise systems by global systemwide sales.

“Earning a spot on the Franchise Times list shows the achievements of our business model, our people, our technology and our best-in-class training and support,” said Caring Senior Service founder and CEO Jeff Salter. “Being named a top franchisor proves how successful our franchise model is in today’s ever-changing market. We are extremely proud of the commitment of both our corporate team and our franchise owners to set the high standards in the home care industry necessary to achieve this honor.”

The Franchise Times Top 500 is an annual ranking of the 500 largest U.S.-based franchise systems. The project is the result of a five-month research and reporting effort that leads to the most credible and objective franchise ranking available, said Franchise Times Editor-in-Chief Laura Michaels.

“The collection of systemwide sales data also provides useful insight into the franchise industry’s performance coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic,” Michaels said. “Every segment gained ground in 2021, with some getting back to or even surpassing 2019 sales while others still have work to do.”

The 10 largest franchised brands gained $45.4 billion in sales in 2021, a 14% increase over the prior year. The top 10 now account for more than $368 billion in annual sales. No. 1 McDonald’s put more room between itself and No. 2 7-Eleven, growing sales by more than $19 billion to $112.5 billion. That marked the best dollar amount sales growth across the Top 500 franchises last year.

“Our GreatCare® method for delivering superior care means our owners can successfully operate a home care business at minimal cost while still maintaining a high level of service,” Salter said. “Our back-office support offers our franchise owners additional accounting, marketing and operational services that enable them to operate at their most efficient, making a Caring Senior Service franchise one of the best to own, and this is reflected in our appearance on this prestigious list.”
