JDog Brands is the largest Veteran franchise system in the world and is the parent franchisor to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jdogbrands.com/services/junk-removal-hauling/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=jdog-brands-eyeing-expansion-into-st-louis-missouri-2720962" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">JDog Junk Removal &amp; Hauling</a> and<a href="https://www.jdogbrands.com/services/carpet-cleaning/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=jdog-brands-eyeing-expansion-into-st-louis-missouri-2720962" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> JDog Carpet Cleaning &amp; Floor Care</a>. President and COO&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevin-kopa-1aaa3044/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=jdog-brands-eyeing-expansion-into-st-louis-missouri-2720962" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Kevin Kopa</a> says the franchise is looking at potentially expanding into 10 territories in the St. Louis area. Each territory will create about five new jobs, eventually leading to the creation of at least 50 employment opportunities in the area.Kopa says, prior to deciding to expand into St. Louis, they saw that both the market territories of Kansas City and Indianapolis, which have a similar size and demographics to St. Louis, have had success since their initial launch. As a whole, Kopa says JDog’s growing brand awareness has “led to franchisees starting with higher revenue and more success than ever.”“We’re looking forward to branching out into these new territories and opening our doors to new communities,” said JDog Brands CEO and Founder <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerryflanagan11/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=jdog-brands-eyeing-expansion-into-st-louis-missouri-2720962" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Jerry Flanagan</a>. “We value our relationship with Veterans, and firmly believe this expansion will allow us to reach even more Veterans from additional communities,” said Flanagan.The expansion resonates with JDog’s long-term goal of reducing the Veteran unemployment rate to below 1% by empowering Veterans with new entrepreneurial opportunities. As it continues to expand with Veteran entrepreneurs throughout the country, the brand has continued to prioritize its primary values of Respect, Integrity and Trust in each of its newly established JDog locations.&nbsp;The growth into St. Louis comes as JDog inches toward its goal of exceeding 300 territories by the end of 2023, after having signed on 66 new territories last year. Though the brand is not new to the state of Missouri, with a successful franchise establishment in nearby Kansas City as well as other franchise locations throughout the region in neighboring Indiana, Illinois, and Kentucky, St. Louis is an open market for potential entrepreneurs who are looking to bring the junk removal brand to the large, dynamic city.In addition to the growth in Missouri, JDog is looking at expanding into cities like Phoenix, Tampa, Salt Lake City and Baltimore.&nbsp;The total investment necessary to begin the operation of a JDog Carpet Cleaning &amp; Floor Care ranges from $37,909 to $169,947, including a $10,000–$25,000 franchise fee. The total investment necessary to begin the operation of a JDog Junk Removal &amp; Hauling ranges from $30,000 to $110,000, including a $35,000 franchise fee.
