Business in Dirt: Anago Cleaning Systems Opens First-ever Master Franchise in Indiana

    POMPANO BEACH, FL, September 13, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- A testament to the continued resilience of the $100 billion dollar commercial cleaning segment, Anago Cleaning Systems (Anago), a leading commercial cleaning franchise with more than 2,400 Unit Franchisees throughout the U.S. and internationally, is pleased to announce that existing Master Franchisee, Curt Albertson has opened the newest Anago Master Franchise in Indianapolis. The new business will be located at 8515 Cedar Place Dr., Suite 101, and will service the Indiana counties of Marion, Hamilton, Hendricks, Boone, Morgan, Johnson, Hancock, Madison and Shelby.

"As we grow our presence across the United States, we're thrilled to have Curt as a Master Franchise Owner in our system, and welcome his new expansion of Anago's incomparable cleaning services to Indianapolis," Adam Povlitz, Executive Vice-President for Anago Cleaning Systems, said. "His blend of strong business acumen and years of running successful Anago Master Franchises in Cincinnati and Dayton have created the foundation to drive new business ventures in this market, while upholding Anago's fundamental philosophies as stated in the vision, mission, and values of our organization."

Curt Albertson has been an Anago Master Franchisee for nine years having opened his first franchise in 2005 servicing greater Cincinnati. Then, in 2008, he expanded his territory and opened his second franchise in Dayton. Prior to Anago, Albertson worked as a representative in the premium/incentive industry selling in the states of Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky, and then owned a distributor company that sold to the premium/incentive industry nationally. As an avid entrepreneur, he even owned an embroidery, silk screening, and pad printing company that employed 80 people on three shifts.

"My decision to open my third Anago Master Franchise stems from my desire to expand further into the Midwest, as cities in this region share similar characteristics as Cincinnati and Dayton and have unlimited opportunity," Albertson said. "I look forward to developing relationships and building businesses in Indianapolis, while supporting my Franchisees through modern processes, best practices, and consistent support in the field to uphold business integrity and ensure exceptional service."

Specializing in all aspects of commercial cleaning such as nightly janitorial services, floor maintenance and carpet cleaning, Anago uses innovative cleaning techniques and constantly tests new methods to improve systems. Through its SmartClean program, Anago clients receive a rotational, systematic service ensuring the highest level of cleanliness for the health of employees and clients.

Anago also touts green cleaning services to keep facilities environmentally-safe by using professional equipment, approved dispensing systems, microfiber products, and recyclable containers to eliminate bacterial transfer. Clients also enjoy a customized work schedule, 24/7 client support, log of all communications, security assurance that each uniformed professional Franchise Owner is bonded and insured and work with the highest regard for confidentiality and discretion.

The new opening highlights the growth of the commercial cleaning segment, which is a top business sector in high demand. Master Franchisees, many of whom use their strong background in sales, marketing, or business operations, have the potential to create dozens of small businesses in the local economy directly. Unit Franchisees focus on cleaning office buildings, medical facilities, manufacturing facilities, and just about any other commercial property, while Master Franchisees handle the administrative tasks, including everything from finding clients, to estimating and coordinating cleaning contracts, to billing and collections. Currently, with more than 35 Master Franchisees system-wide, Anago has proven its success and established its place at the forefront of the industry.

"Our national success is a direct outcome of our professional integrity and our business model, which offers multiple channels for growth within the Anago system," Povlitz said. "With our current growth in Indiana, we hope to inspire potential franchisees to take advantage of the possibilities available at Anago. We're very excited for another outstanding year of development and expansion in 2014."

Anago Cleaning Systems is a commercial cleaning franchise system supporting over 35 Master Franchises and 2,400 Unit Franchisees in the U.S. and internationally. After years of refining procedures and creating duplicable systems created in his large commercial cleaning service, David Povlitz founded Anago in 1989 to help other entrepreneurs open their cleaning businesses. Today, its program sets the standard worldwide in commercial cleaning. Anago was ranked the 10th fastest-growing franchise and #39 on the Franchise 500 by Entrepreneur magazine in 2013, and ranked by Franchise Business Review as one of the best franchises in franchisee satisfaction. Inc. Magazine has also listed Anago as one of the top privately-held companies in the U.S.
