Why This Company Makes Our AllStar List
ServiceMaster Clean improved slightly in most ranking categories this year, though its financial strength ranking declined a bit. Overall, however, this cleaning and disaster restoration franchise maintained its high position on our AllStar list, thanks to its longevity (#8), and brand awareness (#24). ServiceMaster Clean has a strong parent company behind it, ServiceMaster, which owns several home-maintenance franchise brands.
The franchise offers residential and commercial cleaning, and disaster restoration services. This is a low-investment opportunity, and the business can be run from home and part-time.
ServiceMaster Clean offers in-house financing, is listed on the SBA’s Franchise Registry, and participates in the IFA’s VetFran program. The company is also committed to minority franchising and in 2009 teamed with Congressional Black Caucus Foundation to create new college scholarship opportunities and expand entrepreneurial opportunities within the African-American community.
Last Year's AllStar Rank: 50
