The Number Of Seniors Is Climbing

DAYTON, OH (Saturday, January 01, 2005) - Non-medical services and care for senior citizens is a booming market and you can cash in with your own Comfort Keepers franchise. The number of seniors is climbing and many of them require the services offered by Comfort Keepers franchisees. These services include: grocery shopping, errand services, laundry, clothing shopping, recreational activities, organizing the mail, grooming and dressing guidance, meal preparation and light housekeeping tasks. In-home companionship is a great thing for senior citizens. They are willing to pay individuals money to keep them company and help them around their home. It’s a great step to helping seniors live at home.

Kristina Clum was a Registered Nurse who was an expert in Home Health Care. She realized that her patients needed help with daily living tasks. Kristina and her husband Jerry came up with the concept of non-medical care in the form of Comfort Keepers. The company opened their first office in 1998 and started franchising in 1999.

Comfort Keepers now has 410 offices in 45 states, making it one of the fastest growing franchises in the United States. But there is plenty of room for growth as our population ages. Over the next few decades the number of seniors will grow to a market of more than 70 million individuals. Right now there are about 35 million seniors.

You can start this business as a home-based enterprise. The franchise fee is $18,750 and the total investment ranges from $40,000 to $60,000 including franchise fee, startup costs and working capital.
