Aire-Master Franchise

Values & History

Aire-Master began in 1958 as a commercial deodorizing service in Missouri. The company's founder, Jerry McCauley, who was already making his own cleaning supplies, wasn't satisfied with any of the odor control products available at that time.

So, working with his raw material suppliers, he developed a deodorant product that really killed odors. You see a lot of odor neutralizers on the market today, but at that time, nobody else was making them. Aire-Master was a pioneer in that market.

Over the years, the company expanded its commercial and industrial manufacturing to include soaps, degreasers, and other cleaning products. As a service business, we were always responding to customers' needs, so we made products that solved problems for those customers. To this day, Aire-Master operates in a very service-oriented manner, responding to and anticipating customers' needs.

Industry Performance

Market Demand & Advantage

Aire-Master has a route-service business model. We service our customers every 7, 14, or 28 days. This kind of repeat business is one of our main strengths. Unlike a retail business that depends on advertising to bring customers through the door, we go directly to our customers.

Instead of never knowing what your sales are going to be next month, you know exactly how many customers you're going to serve and how much money you'll make at each stop.

Aire-Master is an FDA-registered manufacturer — we make the core products we use in our service. This sets Aire-Master apart from other commercial hygiene businesses. For the products we don't make, we have the national purchasing power to reduce your cost.

Whether you are looking to start a new business or buy an existing one, an Aire-Master franchise might be a great opportunity for you. The startup costs are low, there is no advertising required, you'll sell exclusive products in an exclusive territory, and you'll be part of a growing brand that has outlasted competitors for over 60 years!

We even have second-generation franchisees — kids that grew up in the business and started their own franchises. Our average franchisee length is 10 years, and we have a couple of franchises that have been in Aire-Master for over 40 years.

Training & Support

Each new franchisee completes five days of Stinkie University training at Aire-Master headquarters in Nixa, Missouri. The week is packed full of instruction designed to prepare each franchisee to start strong.

In addition to their five days of training at Stinkie University, each new franchisee will receive up to five days of one-on-one field training at the franchise location. Aire-Master's National Sales Representative will continue the franchisee's sales training. Together, they will call on a variety of potential customers to help get the franchise off to a great start!

Training doesn't stop there, though. Aire-Master has many ongoing education programs.
