The Company

Founded in 1998 and franchised since 1999, Comfort Keepers has been providing in-home care for seniors and other adults for over a decade.

Comfort Keepers is a recognized brand in the industry, with over 600 territories throughout North America.

The Comfort Keepers franchise network has grown in size by double digits every year since 1998. A large percentage of the growth generated is from successful franchisees purchasing additional territories. We offer protected territories for business penetration, and a strong commitment to cooperation between franchisees to build brand dominance.

This is a caring business. Comfort Keepers change the lives of seniors and their families every day.

The Opportunity

The need for senior care will continue to grow for decades.

• The number of individuals in the U.S. over age 65 will double by 2030 to approximately 70 million people
• Improved medical treatment and longer life spans suggests the growing need for senior care.
• Research supports the preference of most to age in one’s own home.
• Today family members often reside in other states, and other countries, creating the need for trusted care because family members live too far away to provide care.
• Providing quality, capable care is taxing. Family members need periodic relief from caregiving.

Comfort Keepers offers the tools and support.
With over a decade of franchise experience, we understand the support services that contribute to a successful franchisee.
