About Office Pride Commercial Cleaning Franchise
Commercial cleaning is evergreen — millions of square feet of new commercial space open every year, and existing buildings always need cleaning.
The Retention Advantage: Less than 10% of Office Pride customers change vendors vs 35% industry average. When you keep clients, revenue compounds. When competitors churn, they’re constantly replacing lost accounts.
The Culture: Office Pride doesn’t make decisions based on church attendance. If you’re honest, have a strong work ethic, and conduct yourself with integrity, you fit. This earned Office Pride a spot in Franchise Business Review’s Hall of Fame.
No Territory Limits: Unlike most franchises, Office Pride doesn’t restrict geographic boundaries. Every owner has room to grow.
“One of the biggest advantages to becoming an Office Pride franchisee is that you plug into a system of vision achievement. We teach business ownership—how to set goals, create clarity, and execute toward that vision. When passion is present, sacrifices don’t feel like sacrifices; they feel like choices. When we find people with passion, we have the business model to help them get there.” — Todd Hopkins, Founder & CEO

Office Pride Franchise Opportunity
Life as an Office Pride Franchise Owner
“We are both Retired Air Force. One thing that I really liked about Office Pride was its commitment to their core values. When we were in the Air Force, we also had core values: integrity first, service before self, excellence in all we do. I had a commander who also added two more: mission first, and the mission is the people. His point was that if you took care of your people, they would take care of the mission. I still wholeheartedly believe that! Office Pride has very similar values about integrity and customer service and doing what is right and what is best. It’s not about the almighty dollar, it’s about doing what’s right for every party involved, not just the owners or bending over backwards for the customer at the expense of the employee. I felt Office Pride set up that scenario best with their faith-based principles.”
“We started a commercial cleaning company with the urging of Scott’s co-worker, in 2003 to get Carmen out of a dead-end job. After a year as an independent company, a ministry friend of Scott’s encouraged us to check out Office Pride. We were able to convert our business and acquire an Office Pride franchise in 2004. Timing is everything and everything in His time! For Office Pride franchisees the sky’s the limit… thanks to the support, the culture, the training and the fellowship we have been blessed with through Todd Hopkins, his corporate staff and our fellow franchisees!”
“My family moved to the U.S. when I was three years old. After high school, I worked for Office Pride while pursuing my education. I was 24 years old when I bought my franchise. We had three employees. Now we have 220 employees.”
