Orkin vs Black Diamond Pest Control Franchise Comparison

Commercial and Residential pest management services. International markets now available.

 

Depending on the size of the territory in which your franchise is located, the initial franchise fee will be between $39,000 and $100,000, which may be discounted if you elect, and the franchisor agrees to, a term for your franchise agreement less than the standard terms set forth in Exhibit 7 or if you operated a pest or termite control business (other than under an Orkin franchise agreement) prior to the signing of the franchise agreement. The estimated initial investment to begin operation of an Orkin Franchise ranges from $84,975 to $231,200. This sum does not include the rent for the business location or other real estate costs or the costs of purchasing any existing customer contracts of the franchisor’s affiliate Orkin, LLC that may be in the territory assigned to you and that you are required to purchase from Orkin, LLC, which may cost in excess of $250,000. Of your estimated initial investment, between $39,000 and $100,000, plus the cost of purchasing such customer contracts, is payable to the franchisor.
