Investment
Required
The
fee for a Cleaning Authority major market franchise ranges from $30,000 to
$55,000, depending on the number of qualified households in the franchisee’s
territory. The fee is reduced for an executive market franchise to between
$15,000 and $30,000, where there are fewer qualified households in the
territory. In some cases more territory can be purchased, in which case the fee
may exceed $55,000. The Cleaning
Authority may finance the cost of purchasing additional territory. The
Cleaning Authority provides the following range of investments required to open
your initial major market franchise. The range assumes that all items are paid
for in cash. To the extent that you choose to finance any of these expense
items, your front-end investment could be substantially reduced.
