Additionally, you must be willing adhere to a proven system and participate in a broader, supportive and fun peer environment. A franchise is only ever granted where we believe you will succeed.

Jim’s Group started as a part-time gardening business in Melbourne, Victoria while Jim Penman completed his PhD in history. It went full time in 1982 and was franchised in 1989. Currently, there are over 4,000 franchisees in four countries, and growing at the rate of around 200 per year. Each franchisee is the owner and operator of their own business, meaning they can work and earn as much as they like.

A common question we get asked is “is there enough work?”. The short answer is yes, in fact we have more work than we can handle. Since the 1^st of January 2017, Jim’s Car Detailing Victoria received over 15,000 leads with over 4,000 of those going unserviced simply because we didn’t have enough franchisees. Another question we are often asked is “does it slow down in winter?”. We actually get busier in winter because cars get dirtier!

The car wash and detailing service industry has an annual revenue of over $500m in Australia. There are millions of vehicles in Victoria alone (fleet vehicles, government vehicles, trucks, caravans, boats etc.), which need regular cleaning and detailing. People generally don’t have time to wash their own cars, nor do they have the time to wait around at a car wash. For this reason, they call a mobile car detailer to have their needs met. Being the largest franchise group in Australia, we are the first that come to mind!

Just like any business, you will get out what you put in. As a financial security, we guarantee our franchisees a minimum of $2,000 per week. A high number of our franchisees are currently making well over $2,000 per week  as work is plentiful.
