Chem-Dry Carpet Cleaning Franchise: Trends to Watch in 2013

NASHVILLE, TN--(Marketwire - Dec 20, 2012) - As the cleaning industry continues to consolidate in 2013, expect to see better cleansing technologies for a broader array of surfaces, as well as more environmentally conscious solutions, say the carpet cleaning experts at Chem-Dry.

The carpet cleaning industry, in particular, will feel the impact of franchising.

"There's no question that industry trends point toward franchises as the emerging model for cleaning businesses," said Dan Tarantin, president and CEO of Harris Research Inc., Chem-Dry's parent company. "The cleaning industry is extremely fragmented and a growing number of previously independent carpet cleaners are realizing that franchises offer big advantages."

Among these, Tarantin said, are uniform, professional standards; superior products and operations; and proprietary, cutting-edge equipment.

Chem-Dry, which has the largest share of the U.S. carpet cleaning market, has solid footing in trends expected to dominate 2013:

Chem-Dry has more than 3,500 franchise units worldwide and has been named a top franchise by Entrepreneur Magazine for 24 years in a row. To learn more, visit http://www.chemdryfranchise.com.
