Specific Minority Program(s) in Place: SERVICEMASTER has estimated that 5% of franchises are owned by minorities in the U.S. An estimated 30% of total franchises are owned internationally. We offer a 10% minority discount off license fee from $2,000 to $4,000. In-house financing of 80% is available to minorities. SERVICEMASTER also has a minority on their collateral material and video that goes out to prospective franchise owners. This minority, Charles Horton, is available for minority function speeches, consultations and advisory.
