Best Commercial Cleaning Franchises to Own (Updated for 2025)
Commercial cleaning franchises, or janitorial service franchises, benefit from multiple different revenue streams in the types of buildings they clean for, including corporate offices, schools, hospitals, retail spaces, and more. And though they are commercial, these franchises can offer services to homeowners as well.
One of the most popular franchise industries, the U.S. janitorial industry has bounced back since its early-pandemic lows when lockdowns were common. According to IBISWorld, the industry profit "has remained constant at 6.3% of revenue" over the past five years.
Green, or environmentally-friendly, cleaning has become of great importance within the commercial cleaning franchise industry, especially as more people have gained the desire to actively do the right thing for the Earth. In addition, the emphasis on green cleaning methods has greatly expanded with the realization that some cleaning solutions can have adverse health effects.
