Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 77 Existing Franchised Businesses (60 single-territory and 17 multiple-territory) operating that were open and reporting revenue for the entire calendar years of 2023 and 2024.
* Calculated weighted average gross revenue using data from 60 single-territory existing franchises (average $1,062,632.83) and 17 multiple-territory existing franchises (average $1,138,708.04). The overall average is ($1,062,632.83 * 60 + $1,138,708.04 * 17) / (60 + 17) = $1,079,428.66. The median gross revenue and quartile data are taken from the larger sample of 60 single-territory existing franchises, as a combined median and combined quartiles could not be precisely calculated from the given aggregate data.

In the B2B cleaning niche, Enviro-Master stands out with its specialized services for high-traffic commercial spots like quick-service restaurants and hotels. Item 19 earnings data paints a picture of scalability that punches above typical service franchise weights, backed by SBA lending history that suggests reliable financing access. But layered fees and a pair of legal disclosures raise the stakes—can this system's momentum overcome the fine print?
Item 7 details a $120,770-$251,520 initial investment, including a $60,000 franchise fee, fitting mid-range for cleaning services but leaning higher with equipment needs. Fees stack up unusually: 6% royalty plus 2% brand/ad fund, then 5% admin/service (minimum $125 weekly), $62.50 weekly technology fee, and $350 monthly local digital marketing—totaling more than category norms where 6-8% all-in is common. Item 19 shines brightly, reporting average gross revenues of $1,079,429 and median $916,115, implying strong top-line potential for territory-based operations, especially multi-unit plays.
System vitality shows promise with locations jumping 36% from 94 in 2023 to 128 in 2024, only 4 corporate-owned, minimal non-renewals (1), 10 transfers, and 2 projected new units. SBA stats are a green flag: 52 loans averaging $227,587 with just 3.9% default rate, far below industry averages around 10-15% for services. Litigation is low-key—one settled franchisee rescission via repurchase, one franchisor action for post-termination compliance—but signals execution risks. For hands-on operators eyeing recurring B2B revenue, the numbers favor investment if you navigate the fee burden and validate local demand.
