City Wide: Revolutionizing Facility Management Through Expert Subcontracting

City Wide is a facility management solutions provider that was founded in 1961. Initially established in Kansas City, Missouri, the company has grown significantly over the years and is now headquartered in Lenexa, Kansas.

City Wide began franchising in 2001, offering entrepreneurs the opportunity to own and operate a business that provides a wide range of building maintenance services to commercial clients. These services include janitorial services, landscaping, window washing, and other essential maintenance tasks.

One of the key differentiators of City Wide is its unique business model, which focuses on being a management company rather than a direct service provider. Instead of employing service workers directly, City Wide acts as a sales and management organization, subcontracting the actual service work to a network of independent providers.

Training 

City Wide Franchise offers a comprehensive training program designed to set up franchisees for success from the outset. The onboarding process spans 10 weeks and includes both virtual and field instruction, ensuring that new franchise owners are thoroughly prepared to manage their operations.

The initial training includes in-depth courses covering a wide range of topics, from sales strategies to best practices in service delivery. Franchisees have access to over 250 courses developed by industry experts, ensuring they are well-equipped to handle the challenges of running a facility management business.

Additionally, new franchisees benefit from hands-on learning experiences, including site visits to high-performing franchises, which provide valuable insights into successful operations.

City Wide also places a strong emphasis on ongoing support, providing franchisees with continuous coaching from dedicated performance coaches. This support is bolstered by a robust network of fellow franchisees who share their knowledge and experience, fostering a collaborative community.

Territory Protection

City Wide Franchise provides its franchisees with large, protected territories, ensuring that each franchisee has a substantial area in which to operate without competition from other City Wide franchises.

The typical territory granted to a franchisee ranges between 1 to 2 million in population, offering a significant customer base and a high number of potential commercial clients. This territorial protection is a crucial aspect of the franchise model, allowing franchisees to build and expand their business within a secure and defined market area.

This protection means that franchisees can focus on growing their business and building relationships within their designated territory without worrying about encroachment from other City Wide operators.
