Anago Franchise · 2025 FDDAnswer from 2025 FDD Document
Each Unit Franchise Agreement will authorize the Unit Franchisee to use the Anago trademarks, trade names, service marks, trade secrets, programs, materials and procedures in the operation of services businesses that are focused primarily on janitorial services but offering other facilities-related services that are, from time to time, approved to be part of the portfolio of services offered by Anago-branded businesses (the "System").

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Anago's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the services businesses operated by Anago Unit Franchisees primarily focus on janitorial services. However, they can also offer other facilities-related services that Anago approves to be part of the services offered by Anago-branded businesses.
This means that while the core business of an Anago Unit Franchisee is cleaning and maintenance, there is potential to expand service offerings. This could include services like carpet cleaning, window washing, or other specialized cleaning tasks, as long as Anago has approved them. This allows Unit Franchisees to potentially increase their revenue streams and cater to a wider range of client needs.
As a subfranchisor, you will enter into commercial service contracts for janitorial and other facilities-related services and assign the performance of services under those contracts to your Unit Franchisees. You will be competing for those contracts with other janitorial and other facilities-related service companies, national and local businesses, franchises, chains and independently operated businesses offering similar services. The markets for selling franchises and for securing commercial accounts for providing janitorial and other facilities-related services is generally developed and very competitive in the United States.
