Proven business model

Our long track record and experience enables us to continually improve our business models, so that when you start your business, we’ve already done a lot of the testing and trialling.  This means you can implement a proven system and start building your business from day one.

Our franchise partners have been with us an average of 17 years, with some still with us after 25 years, through recession and economic uncertainty. These long and mutually beneficial relationships are testament to what our sustainable business model can offer you.

Large exclusive territories

All of our territories are large and exclusive, providing a substantial number of businesses to target with the potential of many years of sustained growth.

Low risk sector

The cleaning industry is a repeat business sector, so as long as customer service levels remain consistently good, businesses tend not to switch regularly.

Minster Cleaning operates in the stable and recession-resistant commercial cleaning sector, which has bounced back quickly from the pandemic.

Workplace cleaning has never been more important and Minster Cleaning’s expertise in infection control has proved to be a valuable asset, particularly in GP surgeries and other medical environments we work in. We can bring this expertise to our clients in other sectors too.
