Consistent Growth Year After Year Is Propelling This Low-Cost Franchise Forward Corvus Janitorial Systems has leapt 66 spots on the 2024 Franchise 500 list.

For a janitorial service like Corvus, cleanliness is always a top priority. But that's far from all. The team at this Westlake, Ohio-based franchise is also focused on expanding the brand. It's a goal that they're achieving, too. Corvus has a total of 1,959 franchise units, up 55% over the last three years.

It's this kind of year-after-year growth that has propelled Corvus Janitorial Systems to #124 on this year's Franchise 500 list, improved 66 spots from last year. The 2024 Franchise 500 is Entrepreneur's most competitive ever with 1,389 franchisors submitting which is a record number. So, Corvus' significant leap up the rankings is even more significant considering the competition.

Founded two decades ago, Corvus also scores in the top 5% in size/growth and has a strong financial score among the companies that applied for this year's list. Add on top of that the fact that franchisees can get started with just about $50,000 in startup fees or less, and well, it's no wonder people are flocking to this franchise opportunity.
