Record Growth Continues with Strong First Half of the Year

Summary

“It’s been an incredible first half of the year for City Wide. Last year we had our best year ever in terms of new locations opening, so it’s great to see that momentum continue through 2023,” said Jeff Oddo, CEO and owner.

Coming off a record-breaking year in 2022, City Wide Facility Solutions, the nation’s leading management company in the building maintenance industry, has continued to experience record growth in the first half of 2023.

In the first six months of the year, it signed 7 new locations, which puts it on pace to match last year’s record-breaking number of new franchisee signings. Also notable is the success of City Wide Facility Solutions’ franchises, reflected in its new financial information which includes an average unit volume (AUV) of $8.07 million – a $1.35M increase from last year, average annual revenue top quartile of $17.96 million and franchisee sales median of $6.4 million

“It’s been an incredible first half of the year for City Wide. Last year we had our best year ever in terms of new locations opening, so it’s great to see that momentum continue through 2023,” said Jeff Oddo, CEO and owner of City Wide Facility Solutions. “Even more impressive is the strength and value of our business model, which is evident through the revenue growth we’re experiencing. When you combine this growth with the number of quality new franchisees we’re signing, the impact we’re able to have in the communities we serve continues to grow as well.”

To assist with the company’s rapid growth and guide the organization toward its goal of becoming a billion-dollar company by 2026, Troy Hartman was promoted to President. Additionally, at its annual Convention in March, City Wide raised more than $600,000 for Learning Independence for Tomorrow – a nonprofit with close ties to City Wide’s franchisees in Tampa, FL.

City Wide Facility Solutions has consistently evolved and adapted to become “The First Choice” for its clients, employees, franchise owners, independent contractors and vendors. Managing more than 20 services for its clients, City Wide offers one point of contact and provides professional communication and project management through every stage of the experience. This allows for clients to focus on running their business while uplifting smaller, independent and locally owned companies to execute services.

Entrepreneurially-spirited individuals interested in owning a City Wide franchise should have a business-to-business background focused on sales, management, and operations experience as well as have a desire to be a part of a mission-driven organization that prioritizes giving back to the community and the franchise system.

Success Stories

I feel very blessed to be part of this business. The thing that is amazing about this franchise model and system that I don’t think any of us foresaw was the scaleability. The scaleability makes all the difference. This is everything I liked about corporate America without all the micromanagement that I hated.

Much like the saying, “dreams come true, not free,” City Wide offered me the opportunity to chase a dream to build a business for my family though hard work and perseverance. The fruits of that hard work have not only created a profitable and growing family legacy business but, more importantly, the platform for us to improve the quality of life of our employees’ families as well as to give back in a meaningful way to our middle Tennessee community. The ceiling is high for those who want to chase their dream.

Jeff and I saw firsthand through my work for City Wide Franchise Corporate how this business can provide real wealth opportunities for us; there is no greater endorsement than a former employee who decides to buy a franchise from the company! With City Wide, we get to make a difference in our community, not just for ourselves and our family, but for our clients and our team. The work is rewarding because we believe in what we are doing for our clients every day.

What appealed to us about City Wide was the opportunity to work together and build a family business.

I fell in love with the Home Office team. I believed in the concept of the model. I loved the team’s professionalism, enthusiasm, integrity, ethics and, most importantly, family values. When we left [Discovery Day] I was scared we would not be selected. We were so excited when we got the call that we had been. It has been the best decision we have ever made for our family.
