Australia
The Australian franchise sector is a large and highly sophisticated industry, contributing approximately 14 percent to the nation’s GDP. Business confidence in the franchising sector is relatively high due to the robust support of the franchising model. In Australia, franchised businesses are two and a half times more likely to succeed than non-franchised businesses. Time-saving and financial-service concepts remain popular and the growing elderly population in Australia presents opportunities in home services, healthcare, and mobile services.

The caregivers that Right at Home employs do not see this as a job, but as a wonderful opportunity to improve or enhance the quality of life for the people they care for. This distinguishes them from other agencies.
