What Are My Startup Costs?
Owning a milliCare Floor & Textile care franchise is affordable
Each year, businesses spend more than $21 billion installing new flooring, and they want to protect that investment. With a milliCare Floor & Textile Care franchise, you have the opportunity to become a leader in the commercial flooring industry with a low cost franchise investment. Commercial floor cleaning is a potentially lucrative industry, too. In fact, many of our franchisees have built multi-million dollar businesses — all with initial commercial flooring and carpet cleaning franchise costs ranging from just $113,800 to $163,000.
Consider this: owning and operating a thriving milliCare territory is a business-to-business sales company that focuses on the long term. Our commercial flooring maintenance contracts range from $200 to more than $2 million, and that’s recurring revenue, which means you can plan for growth and long-term expansion.
At the same time, we help you keep your initial carpet cleaning franchise fees low. Many milliCare franchise owners started out with themselves and just one or two employees before they grew into enterprise-scale organizations with more than 30 employees. When you consider the potential returns on your investment, milliCare Floor & Textile Care is remarkably affordable.
