When I started with the CD franchise in 1990 (left 2001), independents were the spawn of the devil, to be avoided at all costs, far inferior to the wonderful CD.  ::)
As we all know we soak carpets, warp floors, fill the house with mould,  shrink carpets and dance naked in the woods at full moon (or is that last one just me?)  :P

Surley Cd have sold all the area's available in the country

do they move the area's available to fit more in or can you have as many as you want in any one area.

CD can sell one franchise per 60k population, they periodically review the population of any given area and thus allow themselves to sell more franchises, heavens best is indeed a franchise , run along VERY different lines to chem dry!

homeserve chemdry run company owned franchisees the boss i worked for sold his franchise back to head office. Belive me they the most unorganize company i every came
across so i left 2 months , set up my own carpet cleaning firm and not looked back.
chemdry charge a 70% mark up on all the carpet cleaning solutions that they  sell  to a franchise plus you have to spend a set amount each month per franchise licence area.

Reading your post mate sounds like Dick Turpin's running Chem-Dry
I think next time someone mentions Chem-Dry to me I'll have to say "Don't you mean DICK TURPIN Madam"

Reliably informed to fill a one of their porties with CD agents is £10 each (two solutions) wish I brought the master franchise and sold it. 8)

Re CD customers know this name; it’s down to branding Rainbow on the other hand a newbie to the cc world, SM fallen by the wayside, think M&S  still have the number under the cushion. ;D

Think the NCCA will have their hands full at this moment!  They are setting up a new (new!!!!!) standard sponsored by Rainbow. As a business person I can understand.
