High-demand Commercial Kitchen Hood Cleaning Biz For Sale

Description

Commercial kitchen cleaning and fire-prevention franchise opportunity serving restaurants and other food-service facilities.

This is a new franchise opportunity rather than the resale of an existing operating business.

Services

• Kitchen exhaust hood cleaning
• Conveyor oven cleaning
• Pressure washing
• Grease filter replacement
• Grease containment services
• Commercial appliance deep cleaning

Typical customers include restaurants, schools, hotels, senior living facilities and other commercial kitchens.

Many of these services are performed on recurring schedules because commercial kitchens must meet applicable fire, health and maintenance requirements. The exact service frequency depends on the facility, equipment, local code and applicable standards.

Franchise model

• Home-based operation
• No retail location required
• Can begin with two technicians and a branded vehicle
• Proprietary dispatch and billing software
• Initial training and ongoing franchise support
• Local marketing tools and national brand resources

The franchisor offers exclusive territories that the listing states may contain as many as 2,000 potential commercial customers.

Investment requirements

• Estimated initial investment: approximately $200,000 to $257,000
• Minimum net worth: $200,000
• Buyer must be a U.S. or Canadian citizen or permanent resident

Franchise financing options may be available, and the franchisor offers certain discounts for veterans and first responders. Buyers should confirm current eligibility and terms.

The owner’s role is expected to focus on sales, employee management, scheduling and business development rather than performing every cleaning job personally.

Buyers should review the current Franchise Disclosure Document and verify franchise fees, royalties, advertising charges, territory size, vehicle and equipment costs, working capital needs, technician requirements, insurance, financing terms and any required certifications.

Commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning and fire-prevention work may also be subject to local fire codes, NFPA standards, customer-specific requirements and other state or municipal rules. Buyers should independently confirm all licensing, training and compliance requirements for the territory.
