OpenWorks
OpenWorks is in the business of granting franchises for commercial janitorial service businesses. OpenWorks enters into janitorial service contracts with commercial clients. These contracts (or “accounts”) may then be “packaged” with other similar contracts to cumulate at one of four levels of a gross monthly dollar amount (also called the “initial monthly account volume” in the Franchise Agreement), and assigned to OpenWorks franchisees, who receive exclusive rights to service the contracts under OpenWorks’ trademarks and system.

This page is generated from Franchise Fox franchise and FDD-derived data. Reported franchisee counts and economics usually come from the most recent available FDD snapshot rather than manually edited marketing copy.
Scale and Filing Notes
The current Franchise Fox dataset has strong FDD coverage, but live location counts are still sparse in the denormalized export. For now, the best “size” signal is reported franchisee count.
