JAN-PRO Cleaning Systems
Jan-Pro franchisees offer commercial cleaning services to businesses such as car dealerships, gyms, banks, churches, schools and offices. The company's "Cleaning Greener" initiative emphasizes the use of cleaning products that require fewer chemicals to clean more.
Commercial Cleaning is a rapidly growing industry. Today it generates total sales of $140 Billion, and experts project that number to grow to $155.35 billion by 2010.
The commercial Cleaning industry has traditionally been undersupplied with people to service it, so there is plenty of untapped demand for quality service.
In spite of changes in the economy, commercial property owners and managers always need to keep their properties clean and well maintained, so the industry is often described as "recession resistant".

Liquid Nutrition
Our story begins, as many exciting stories do, in downtown Montreal in 2005. Obsessed with health and wellness, Chantal and Greg Chamandy, set up stores in an area surrounded by offices, universities and large health clubs.
They realized that the health conscious and time-deprived people in their city needed maximum nutrition for maximum performance. Greg and Chantal integrated vitamins and supplements into Liquid Nutrition, creating inventive combinations of fruit, juices, almond milk and neutraceuticals. Their fusion of naturally flavoured, intensely healthy functional beverages found an immediate demand.
In a few short years, Liquid Nutrition has become a hub at the centre of athletic urban lifestyles with stores in Montreal, Quebec City, Toronto, Oakville, Vancouver , Nassau, Bahamas and territory rights in MENA.
Our streamlined franchise model occupies a small footprint and provides you with ease of operation. It is designed to fit into virtually any location, requiring only electricity and water. Since our fresh, delicious offerings require no cooking – you needn't invest in or insure against accidents due to messy fryers or complicated cooking appliances. Your staff need only possess superior customer service skills and not the ability to cook!
Distinctive Hybrid Model Builds Opportunity
While most stores with a nutritional focus feature food or retail items, Liquid Nutrition's hybrid model reaches out to a broader customer base. It presents the opportunity to educate and convert health food bar customers via featured items and specials. Moreover, food bars draw customers in on a more regular basis than do retail stores, increasing opportunities to cross-sell retail products. Liquid Nutrition's retail products allow its devotees to continue the lifestyle at their homes as well.
One-On-One Training
Classroom instruction will cover administration, operations and sales/marketing. With valuable on-the-job training, you'll gain insight into our philosophy and experience in the daily operation of a successful Liquid Nutrition store. When you're prepared to open your own door, we'll send an experienced coach to assist you to get off to a healthy start.
Site Selection
Guidelines for choosing the most promising location for your franchise have been established to provide you with key parameters to ensure the viability of your new business location. As part of the winning Liquid Nutrition Team, we'll assist you during the process and provide final approval.

Snap-on Tools
In 1920, a particular wrench could only do one particular job, but Joseph Johnson had an idea to change that. Along with William Seidemann, he began manufacturing ten different sockets that would "snap on" to five interchangeable wrench handles, so that one tool could do the work of five. The Snap-on Wrench Company's representatives sold these new products by taking them to the customers at their places of business and demonstrating their use.
Today, Snap-on Tools franchisees sell far more than just wrenches. They offer over 22,000 products, including hand tools, power tools, diagnostic tools, tool storage and shop equipment, but the way they sell is much the same. Once a week they bring their "mobile stores"--trucks filled with their products--directly to their customers, which include car dealerships, mechanics, marinas and airports.
Franchise can be run from home. 8% of all franchisees own more than one unit. Absentee ownership of franchise is NOT allowed. (100% of current franchisees are owner/operators).
