Why I Love My Franchise
Several reasons but primarily because the business can be run from home, and a route based service plus the need for repeat service yields ongoing, long term recurring revenue. While Filta's services aren't glamorous, they are truly needed and valuable to kitchens, especially those managing fryers and cooking oil. Finally, Filta isn't a seasonable business but one that operates 52 weeks a year and that for 30 years now.
