This week's Franchise of the Week is the Voda Cleaning and Restoration franchise: a two-in-one service model combining specialty cleaning with water and mold restoration, where a large share of the work is paid by an insurance carrier rather than by the homeowner.
We compare the 2025 and 2026 FDD side by side, what it costs to open, the franchise fee, the royalty and brand fund, and what the FDD reports the top-performing owners are doing in annual sales. We also get into why a recession-resistant service model scales differently from retail franchising, and what 200 territories sold in three years tells you about a young franchise system.

https://www.franchiseempire.com/newsletter?utm_source=feSep13202613 September 2026, 4:00 pm - 38 minutesDrop the Mop: There are 25+ Revenue Streams in the City Wide Facility Solutions Franchise
We appreciate it when we can work with business owners who have been building their franchise business with their family members. Today's podcast was started by Savannah Oddo's grandfather 60 (yes, sixty) years ago, and it still hasn't hit a ceiling on growth. Chantel sits down with Savannah, VP of Franchise Development at City Wide Facility Solutions, to unpack a B2B franchise model that is scalable and strong. City Wide isn't your typical cleaning crew business. Instead, it's a franchise based on one point of contact managing 20+ facility services for commercial properties. If you were hoping to pick up a mop or a rag, this franchise is not for you. Savannah explains how City Wide Facility Solutions, once a family janitorial company, transformed into a management business with 25+ revenue streams and exclusive territories so that franchisees collaborate instead of compete. So, put the mop down and listen up.

How do painting and a boxing movie belong together in this podcast? Listen to learn how the strange combination works. In this episode, Chantel sits down with Chris Lucas, VP of Franchise Development at Fresh Coat Painters, to break down a business model that's disrupting a recession-resistant industry with a variety of revenue streams. It's a painting franchise that doesn't require its owners to ever touch a paint can. Chris explains why Fresh Coat isn't looking for painters. Instead, they're looking for leaders who can show up in their community while following a proven system backed by strong support. Chris also shares the cost of entry and investment details for Fresh Coat franchise ownership, and he gets personal about facing fear and jumping into business ownership, owning his inner Rocky Balboa along the way.

Grab our breakdown of the 5 Low-Cost Businesses That Make $1 Million: https://www.franchiseempire.com/lowcost?utm_source=feaug112026
Cabinet IQ founder and CEO Michael Hartel breaks down what it actually takes to own one of the fastest-growing kitchen cabinet and countertop franchises in the country. He walks through the real numbers — the investment range, first-year revenue, and how new owners with no industry experience are opening strong by simply running the playbook. Michael explains why the showroom costs less to build than people fear, how franchisees beat shops that have been open 40 years, and the five core values he looks for in every candidate. If you're weighing which franchise to buy, this is a candid, numbers-first look at the model, the support, and the kind of person who thrives in it.
