Jani-King Franchise Model Overview

Jani-King operates through regional offices that sell and service commercial cleaning contracts, then assign those accounts to unit franchisees who perform the cleaning with their own crews. The unit franchisee is buying a guaranteed initial book of business and the regional office's sales and billing support, in exchange for royalties and fees on the revenue. It's a hands-on business at the unit level. Buyers should understand the difference between a unit franchise and a regional master, and read the account-assignment and replacement terms carefully.

Ideal owner profile
