City Wide

Own a High-ROI Commercial Maintenance Business Built on Recurring Contracts

City Wide Franchise delivers building maintenance solutions for commercial properties by managing more than 20 services such as janitorial, lawn and landscaping, handyman, and security. The model is built around sales leadership and a world-class client experience while independent contractors perform the work, allowing owners to scale without buying equipment, carrying inventory, or managing large hourly crews.

This is an executive-style, B2B opportunity in a massive, essential industry where every commercial building can become a long-term client.

Why Invest in City Wide?

• High revenue potential, with Average Unit Volume reported at $7.8 million and top quartile average annual revenue reported at $18.8 million (per 2024 Item 19)
• B2B sales and management model designed to scale without travel, equipment, inventory, or large hourly employee teams
• Recurring, compounding revenue potential through annual contracts and 20+ services to manage for each client
• Low-overhead, low-inventory structure supported by strong client retention
• Exclusive, protected territories designed around 1 to 2 million in population

Jeff and I saw firsthand through my work for City Wide Franchise Corporate how this business can provide real wealth opportunities for us; there is no greater endorsement than a former employee who decides to buy a franchise from the company! With City Wide, we get to make a difference in our community, not just for ourselves and our family, but for our clients and our team. The work is rewarding because we believe in what we are doing for our clients every day.

Why City Wide Stands Out

Building maintenance is a $100 billion+ industry, and many providers deliver inconsistent quality. City Wide sets a higher standard by pairing professionalism with a values-driven service culture. Clients get one point of contact who handles issues, manages vendors, and oversees quality control, removing the ongoing hassle of coordinating multiple service providers.

City Wide franchise owners win the business and manage the relationship while a vetted network of specialized independent contractors delivers the services. This creates consistency for clients and helps reduce missed service. National presence and national buying power support faster growth, stronger credibility in the market, and more frequent access to RFP opportunities. Owners benefit from robust corporate support and a peer network of franchise leaders.

A Day in the Life as a City Wide Owner

Your day centers on leading sales, building relationships, and ensuring a great client experience. You meet commercial decision-makers, develop proposals, and secure annual service agreements. Once accounts are active, you manage contractor performance, oversee quality control, and stay close to client satisfaction through proactive communication and site visits as needed.

As you scale, you build a professional team to support account management and growth, allowing you to focus on strategy, revenue, and expanding service lines across your territory.

Support and Training That Helps You Launch Strong

City Wide typically guides new owners through a 90-day path from signing to opening. Support Center experts assist across business setup, office location, hiring, marketing, and training.

Training includes a chaperoned city visit with a Business Performance Coach to a high-performing location, mandatory pre-training lessons through City Wide University, and a required two-week program at the Support Center in Lenexa, Kansas that blends classroom instruction, field training, and hands-on experience. After opening, your Business Performance Coach provides in-market guidance during your early weeks to keep momentum strong.

What appealed to us about City Wide was the opportunity to work together and build a family business. No corporate bosses, no long-distance travel, and the freedom to be there for our children when we want. Personal effort is directly rewarded with results and as you grow you get to share that success with an ever-growing team of direct staff, independent contractors, and happy clients.

Ideal Franchisee Traits

City Wide looks for experienced B2B professionals who can lead sales and build a team. Strong candidates often bring 10 to 20 years of business-to-business experience, sales or sales management expertise, and real leadership with P&L responsibility. The best owners are organized relationship builders who move with urgency, enjoy solving problems, and can motivate a professional team. Competitive, self-driven, high-energy operators tend to thrive in this model.

City Wide offers a scalable path into commercial services with recurring contracts, a broad menu of solutions, protected territories, and a model designed for executive leadership. If you want a business built on long-term client relationships and strong unit economics, City Wide is worth a closer look.
