ComForCare Home Care Ranked in Franchise Times 2019 Top 200+

DETROIT (October 15, 2019) – ComForCare Home Care, a premier provider of in-home care, has earned its ranking in the 2019 Franchise Times Top 200+ list. ComForCare makes the list at 247 out of 500.

The Top 200+ is an annual ranking of the 500 largest franchise systems in the United States by global system wide sales, based on the previous year’s performance. The project is the result of a five-month research and reporting effort each year that results in the most credible and objective franchises available.

“It’s an honor to be named to the Franchise Times Top 200+,” said Sean Kajcienski, chief revenue and operating officer. “Our entire franchise network has been working hard to bring in-home care to communities around North America. With the number of Americans aged 65 and older projected to double from 46 million in 2016 to over 98 million in 2060, ComForCare is in a unique position to meet this growing demand.”

ComForCare is part of Best Life Brands, a family of companies focused on the well-being of clients at any stage of life. The multi-brand organization also includes CarePatrol, the nation’s largest senior placement organization and recently acquired Blue Moon Estate Sales, the nation’s industry-leading estate sale franchise brand.
