Buy a 101 Mobility Franchise

101 Mobility is a franchise providing mobility and accessibility solutions for seniors, people with disabilities, and veterans. Founded in 2008 and franchising since 2010, the Wilmington, NC-based brand positions itself as the largest mobility and accessibility franchise in North America, with nearly 200 locations across 39 states.

Franchisees operate from showroom and warehouse locations where clients can consult on options and test products before purchase. The range covers stairlifts, wheelchair ramps, platform lifts, home elevators, grab bars, bathroom safety systems, pool and spa lifts, patient handling equipment, and vehicle mobility aids. Revenue comes from product sales, professional installation, equipment rentals, and ongoing service and repair.

Customers are primarily seniors aging in place, individuals with physical limitations, and veterans seeking adaptive equipment. The brand also serves commercial clients on ADA compliance projects and acts as an established provider to the Veterans Administration, adding an institutional B2B channel beyond direct consumer sales. Franchisees operate within exclusive protected territories.

Why buy a 101 Mobility Franchise?

Buying a 101 Mobility franchise means entering a category built on needs-based, not discretionary, demand. With the US 65-plus population projected to reach 73 million by 2030 and 90% of seniors preferring to age at home, the customer base is growing steadily. For many clients, accessible-home modifications are a functional requirement, giving the category resilience across economic cycles.

The business model combines multiple revenue streams: product sales, installation, equipment rentals, and recurring service and repair. VA contract access and commercial ADA compliance work add institutional B2B revenue that an independent operator would need to build from scratch. Proprietary Mobilink™ software manages scheduling, customer records, quoting, and inventory, making system access a tangible asset in any resale transaction.

101 Mobility – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    101 Mobility's initial training is a two-week in-person program at Wilmington, NC: week one covers product knowledge and installation certification; week two covers marketing, sales, and operations. Pre-opening preparation includes e-learning modules and weekly calls. Ongoing support includes bi-weekly Franchise Business Consultant calls, monthly webinars, and an annual conference. Franchisees use Mobilink™, the brand's proprietary software for scheduling, customer management, quoting, and inventory. Resale buyers should confirm what onboarding and Mobilink™ access transfer with the sale, and whether installation certifications carry over.

  2. Ideal Owner

    The ideal 101 Mobility franchisee is sales-oriented and comfortable building referral relationships with healthcare providers, senior communities, and VA facilities. No prior industry experience is required; product knowledge and installation management are covered in training. The role suits someone who prefers managing a small team, conducting consultative in-home assessments, and developing local visibility in the healthcare and senior services community. Customer empathy matters, as clients often face challenging personal circumstances, and owners come from backgrounds ranging from business leadership to construction.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    101 Mobility holds over 4,700 five-star customer reviews and positions itself as the largest mobility and accessibility franchise in North America. As an established Veterans Administration provider, the brand carries credibility in government healthcare procurement. In 2024, the brand announced a strategic partnership with the 'Divine Renovation' TV series, broadening its public profile. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition is best evaluated alongside the local reputation of the specific territory, including customer reviews, online ratings, and referral-source relationships.

  4. Industry / Market

    The US aging-in-place market is shaped by a clear demographic shift: more than 10,000 Americans turn 65 daily, and the US 65-plus population is projected to reach 73 million by 2030. Research shows 90% of seniors prefer to remain at home, yet only around 10% of US homes are configured for mobility-limited occupants. That gap in housing readiness creates sustained demand for stairlifts, ramps, and accessibility modifications. Many purchases are driven by medical necessity, making the category relatively resilient across economic cycles. VA and ADA compliance work add institutional demand alongside direct consumer sales.
