Celebrating World Franchise Day: Beyond the Usual Brands
When most people think of franchises, they picture coffee shops, burger chains or fitness studios. But on World Franchise Day, we’re shining a light on the lesser-known, but equally impactful, franchises that are building, fixing and restoring the places we call home.
Franchises in renovation, restoration and repair are transforming how homeowners access skilled trades. These businesses combine the strength of a national brand with the personal touch of local ownership. Whether it’s emergency water damage restoration, eco-friendly home upgrades or full-scale remodeling, these franchises are helping people rebuild, refresh and reimagine their spaces.
“Franchising in the home services sector opens doors for both customers and entrepreneurs,” says Jennifer Shayko, Leader of the Franchising Group at Aird & Berlis. “It empowers skilled tradespeople to grow their own businesses with confidence, while delivering consistent, high-quality service that strengthens neighbourhoods and supports local economies.”
Today, we celebrate not just the household names, but the hardworking franchisees behind the scenes that are fixing roofs, restoring basements and building better homes.
Happy World Franchise Day!
