Overview

Kitchen Guard is a commercial kitchen exhaust and cleaning franchise that provides essential compliance services to businesses with commercial kitchens. Founded in 2009 and franchising since 2023, Kitchen Guard operates in a highly regulated industry where kitchen ventilation cleaning is required by law. With built-in demand and a recurring revenue model, this business presents a scalable opportunity in the B2B service sector.

Franchise owners benefit from a low-cost, high-margin business with multiple revenue streams, including full kitchen exhaust cleaning, filter exchange programs, technical repairs, and green steam vapor cleaning. Kitchen Guard provides world-class training, marketing, and sales support to help franchisees establish long-term client relationships. With open territories in major markets, franchisees can quickly gain market share in a fragmented industry with limited national competition.

This franchise is ideal for sales-driven entrepreneurs who want to operate a B2B business with a strong growth trajectory. While prior experience in the food service or restaurant industry is beneficial, it is not required. Successful owners should be team builders, strategic thinkers, and driven to scale their business.
