City Wide Franchise, the nation’s leading building maintenance management franchise, has earned another national accolade for its growth and achievements during 2015.
FranchiseGrade.com, a leading franchise market research firm, announced that City Wide Franchise has been named to its annual list of top 500 franchise companies. The list, titled “The Franchise Grade Top 500,” ranked hundreds of participating franchise companies by their overall performance for the year.
Through its analysis, FranchiseGrade.com’s ranking places City Wide Franchise in the top 10 percent of all U.S. franchises researched, beating out more than 2,000 franchise concepts. The company was named first in its category and 56th overall.
“We are always looking for ways to better serve our franchise partners. This survey is a great way for us to benchmark and measure our performance from year to year to ensure we are providing our system with the best resources to improve and grow their businesses,” said Jeff Oddo, CEO and president of Lenexa-based City Wide. “I am very pleased with this year’s high scores and look forward to driving up our satisfaction rating even further in the years ahead.”
FranchiseGrade.com collected and evaluated data from 2,387 franchise systems to determine the rankings. Using its Franchise Performance Index™, a data analysis tool that grades franchise investment opportunities, concepts were evaluated on number of years franchising, franchisee turnover rates, litigation history, sector growth, executive backgrounds, franchisee satisfaction survey results, lending data, and more.
City Wide has made a name for itself in major U.S. cities by streamlining commercial facilities and maintenance management of more than 20 services through a collection of service providers and alliance partners, including floor care, window washing, janitorial supplies, parking lot maintenance, and several others. Taking the onus off building owners and property management companies that typically have to choose separate companies for each task, City Wide eases the selection and management processes for its clients.
