Operations have also been initiated

Car Care franchise owners are
widely acknowledged as providers of
high-quality cleaning and detailing
services. Customers find their
services extremely convenient to
use especially as all the franchise

own water tank and generator. This
obviates the need for franchisees to
locate taps and power points.
The company is highly conscious of
the requirement to help preserve the
environment. Its detailers use only bio-
degradable products. All franchisees
also carry water permits. In case a
customer requires a waterless wash

In addition to providing car detailing
services, franchisees are also called
upon to clean boats, light airplanes,
