Merry Maids Receives Two New Investors To The Network
Merry Maids, one of the UK’s leading domestic cleaning franchises, has welcomed two new investors into its network, Mylin Lasham and Gary Rolfe.
Mylin Lasham chose to invest in an existing franchise territory in Moray, near to Inverness from long-standing and award-winning Merry Maids franchisee, Bill Grant.
Gary Rolfe purchased the franchise license to operate in his hometown of Kingston-upon-Thames. Excited about the opportunity ahead of him, Gary said: “I’m ready for the challenge and can’t wait to start employing maids and meeting new customers. The Kingston and surrounding areas are a fantastic place for business and I’m raring to go.”
Mylin added: “The Moray franchise is in a fantastic place for me to be able to bring fresh enthusiasm and develop the business further. I’m looking forward to meeting all of the existing customers and finding out where we can deliver an ever better service to them and new customers.”
Merry Maids brand operations manager, Cat Berry commented: “With the spring cleaning season upon us, both Mylin and Gary have an ideal opportunity to get off to a flying start with their businesses. I’m predicting great things for these two.”
Merry Maids is a franchise of ServiceMaster Ltd, which has been operating in the UK for over 55 years. With nearly 70 local Merry Maids businesses in the UK, it is one of the leading domestic cleaning brands in the industry.
