With the growing number of seniors worldwide, many government and private healthcare programs are overwhelmed, understaffed and under-funded. As a result, senior services are struggling to meet the basic daily needs of seniors. In an effort to take the burden off of hospitals and nursing homes, governments are beginning to focus more on private care programs that help seniors to remain in their own homes.
According to Entrepreneur Magazine, senior care is one of the leading growth sectors in global franchising. In most countries worldwide, the number of people over 65 years of age will rise significantly over the next 25 years. In many countries, the population of elderly people will double or triple between the years 2000 and 2030.
Within 25 years, all world regions will see extensive growth of population over the age of 65:
| Europe |
15.5% |
24.3% |
| North America |
12.6% |
20.3% |
| Asia |

The overwhelming majority of seniors would prefer to stay in their own home, and an increasing number of seniors live alone. In many societies, women have been the traditional caregivers for elderly family members, but this is changing with the increasing number of working women. Finally, many families do not live near their aging parents, and the difficulties associated with long-distance caregiving will continue to drive the need for senior care services.
At Comfort Keepers, we are seeking candidates in select countries for Unit Franchise opportunities (for local territories) within the countries of Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, Portugal, Singapore, and United Kingdom.
In select countries where a Master Franchise is operating, Comfort Keepers currently has several opportunities for "unit franchisees" to open one or more offices in local territories. Total capital requirements typically start from about US $50,000 - $75,000 for each unit franchise territory of 175,000 people. Capital requirements and territory size will vary by country and by the number of unit franchise territories desired by an operating group.
