Griswold Home Care Franchise Model Overview

Griswold Home Care franchisees run an agency that recruits, screens and employs caregivers who provide personal care, homemaking, companionship and incidental transportation to older adults and people with disabilities in their homes. The brand traces to 1982 and converted from a caregiver-registry model to an employer-based agency model beginning in 2016; Items 19 and 20 cover the agency-model outlets, the only ones now offered. The business runs from a small leased office of 500 to 1,000 square feet with basic technology and heavy insurance, so the investment is low six figures, mostly working capital while private-pay clients build. Fees are light: 5 percent royalty, 1 percent marketing fee and a $12,000 annual local marketing minimum. The owner must run the business full time for the first three years; after that a trained manager with a 10 percent stake may take over. The agency-model system has grown from 111 to 146 territories in three years.
