Leading Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Franchise Spreads Across the Golden State, Seizes Opportunity for Continued West Coast Development.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Carpet and upholstery cleaning franchise leader Chem-Dry recently announced two major signed agreements in California, furthering the brand’s presence in the state. One signed agreement covers the Sacramento area, and the other covers Greater San Bernadino. Chem-Dry is on the fast-track for growth in 2022, with 23 signed agreements year-to-date and a goal of adding 70 franchises by the end of the year.

Mastrolia is a Sacramento-area local with a military background and experience in management and sales, most recently working as a bail bondsman for ten years. Ojeisekhoba is located in Orange County, and has worked in the cleaning industry for over 20 years before finding Chem-Dry. Both franchisees saw potential for growth in their service areas, and chose the brand due to its extensive recognition for quality and success over the past 45 years.

Placer and Sacramento counties have experienced decent growth compared to other areas of the state, with both counties seeing increases in population during the pandemic. San Bernadino and Riverside counties also noted a population increase despite nearby Orange County seeing a decline. Chem-Dry is poised for growth in the state, with over 250 franchises in operation across California.
