Commercial Landscaping Franchise ROI: What to Expect

Return On Your Investment

You might be wondering what the average profit margin for a landscaping business is. After all, you don’t want to invest in an opportunity that isn’t profitable. The good news is that ours is an essential industry, and U.S. Lawns has been a leader in it for decades. Furthermore, we pride ourselves on transparency, which means we’ll connect you with some of our existing franchisees and provide you with important information about our commercial landscaping franchise ROI (return on investment) to help you make an informed decision about investing in a U.S. Lawns franchise.

Our FDD and Item 19

Every franchisor is required to produce a Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) that includes information about a brand’s leaders, the cost of investment, training and support, and more. One part of an FDD, Item 19, is optional. In that section, franchisors report on the financial performance of their franchisees. Because U.S. Lawns values transparency, we’re proud to include a detailed Item 19 in our FDD. Reviewing it will help you better understand and appreciate the value of a U.S. Lawns investment.
