Jani-King (GB) Announces Significant Growth During 2006/7

Jani-King (GB) Ltd, one of the UK’s leading contract cleaning companies, has announced strong results for 2006. The company achieved a record profit of £1.4 million during 2006 following a self-funded restructuring programme. The company is also well on track to achieve its projected turnover of £14 million in 2007.

The Jani-King UK franchise operation has a nationwide network of more than forty business franchise owners who service national contracts in their local area.

Paul Haworth, Director commented: “These results represent an encouraging performance and a further strengthening of our market following a return to profit in 2005. Following a review of our business in 2006, the board took decisive steps to move to a national accounts strategy which has impacted positively on our growth this year.” He added: “However, we are not complacent and recognise that in order to continue this success, we need to strengthen our national network of franchisees. Therefore, we have invested in the development of a new franchise recruitment process which will help us to identify entrepreneurs with the attributes and determination to achieve success.”

Jani-King offers bespoke solutions, utilising a range of specialist cleaning products, to meet the different needs and budgets of its customers. The company services a diverse client base throughout the UK and is particularly strong in the leisure and retail sectors. Clients include leading retailers such as Superdrug, Next and H&M Hennes, as well as hotel, healthclubs and cinema operators.

Jani-King’s strong performance is also reflected in the franchising sector as a whole. Annual sales and employment growth continue to outstrip that of the UK economy, and, as a whole, the franchising sector now contributes £10.8 billion of revenue to the economy.
