How Molly Maid Operates

Each Molly Maid location is independently owned and operated by a local franchisee, who runs the business while following the brand's national operating, service, and customer experience standards. This model combines local ownership with the training, systems, and resources of a national brand. Molly Maid's U.S. franchise system, part of Neighborly, serves customers across the United States. The brand originated in Canada in 1979, but the Canadian Molly Maid organization operates independently of Neighborly and is not part of the U.S. franchise system described on this page.
