Success through Caring
Ask any Comfort Keepers franchise owner about being in the business of providing
care for seniors, and they will tell you that it is one of the most rewarding
ways they have ever earned a living. With approximately 36 million aging adults
in America - and that number is expected to exceed 70 million over the next two
decades, a fertile new industry has rapidly been growing, offering an
entrepreneurial path to build a business and touch people's lives.
We invite you to learn more about the Comfort Keepers franchise program where
you can achieve success through caring.

Entrepreneur magazine and have become one of the fastest-growing new
franchises in America, as recognized by INC., Wall Street Journal, Successful

can be both!

strong, pre-qualified entrepreneurs. The quality of our franchisees reflects
