As part of its ongoing effort to meet the growing demand for quality in-home care, the company aims to add up to six new territories in the St. Louis area over the next few years.Comfort Keepers has been in business for over 26 years, building a strong reputation for delivering personalized care through Interactive Caregiving. According to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-oaks-39396612/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=comfort-keepers-targets-st-louis-market-for-franchise-development-2727791" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Scott Oaks</a>, Vice President of Franchise Development for Comfort Keepers, the company’s decision to focus on St. Louis is driven by both the growing senior population and the proven success of its existing franchisees in nearby regions.<h3>A Market Ripe for Expansion</h3>“St. Louis is a major market for us where we have only limited representation at the moment,” Oaks said. “We know, because of the nature of our business, that there are opportunities for Comfort Keepers franchises to be successful in this market due to the surge in the senior population.”According to Oaks, Comfort Keepers strategically designs its territories to serve populations between 225,000 and 300,000 people, with at least 10% of the population being 65 or older. This demographic makeup is vital for the success of Comfort Keepers franchisees, as the majority of their clientele consists of seniors who require home care services. St. Louis meets these criteria with robust areas that could support five to six territories.<h3>Building on Success</h3>Comfort Keepers’ confidence in expanding into St. Louis comes from the success they've seen in similar markets. “Each market where we’ve already got a small footprint with an existing franchisee has validated the need and the demand for our services,” said Oaks. “What we’re looking to do is take the success we’ve had and really expand it to service more clients and families in St. Louis.”As a brand that primarily offers private-pay services, Comfort Keepers serves families looking for personalized care solutions for their loved ones. However, the company also works with third-party payers and Medicaid programs to ensure that income is not a barrier for families seeking care.<h3>Job Creation and Franchisee Support</h3>In terms of job creation, Comfort Keepers’ franchisees in fully operational territories employ between 50 and 60 caregivers, most of whom work part-time, averaging 20 to 30 hours a week. This model allows franchisees to contribute significantly to local employment while delivering the high-quality care Comfort Keepers is known for.As for what makes Comfort Keepers stand out in a competitive in-home care industry, Oaks highlights the company’s approach to caregiving and its locally involved franchisees. “I think our approach towards interactive caregiving and the fact that the majority of our franchisees are owner-operators who are locally involved gives us an advantage over a lot of other options out there,” he said. “We’ve been in business for 26 years, and there’s really not a metro area that we haven’t been able to come into and be successful.”<h3>Franchise Opportunities in St. Louis</h3>For prospective franchisees, Comfort Keepers offers a compelling business opportunity in St. Louis. The investment to open a Comfort Keepers franchise typically ranges from $130,000 to $175,000, including an initial franchise fee of $55,000. Comfort Keepers also offers a 10% discount on the franchise fee for veterans and provides further discounts for multi-territory acquisitions.The company’s aggressive expansion plans aim to add 36 new territories across the country in the current fiscal year, with a goal of increasing its overall system by 100 new territories within the next three years.&nbsp;“Our business model has shown over time that you can have the best of both worlds,” Oaks said. “As a Comfort Keepers owner, you can have success from a business standpoint while making a real difference in the lives of others.”For more information on franchising with Comfort Keepers, visit:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.comfortkeepersfranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=comfort-keepers-targets-st-louis-market-for-franchise-development-2727791" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.comfortkeepersfranchise.com/</a>.
