A leading provider of in-home care services to seniors and individuals of all ages and an Entrepreneur 500-ranked enterprise, added 101 new territories last year – a new record for the franchisor.
A pioneer in the home care industry, SYNERGY HomeCare ended 2025 with 626 territories in 44 states, representing an 86% increase in the brand’s geographic footprint since December 2019. In 2026, SYNERGY HomeCare was once again recognized as an as one of Entrepreneur’s fastest growing franchises based on unit growth, ranking the company #44 on its Fastest Growing Franchise list.
“We are entering 2026 with tremendous momentum on the expansion front, and we intend to capitalize on that right out of the gate,” said Charlie Young, CEO of SYNERGY HomeCare. “In the coming year, we will continue growing our footprint as industry leaders by staying nimble and responsive to the evolving business climate while fortifying the support our franchisees need to thrive in their businesses.”
SYNERGY HomeCare was recently named to Franchise Business Review’s Culture100 for the fourth year in a row, which ranks the top 100 franchise companies who foster a strong company culture by focusing on leadership, core values, franchisee community and engagement. SYNERGY HomeCare has also been consistently recognized over the years by Franchise Business Review as a top franchise for women and veterans, as well as a top low-cost, and recession-resistant franchise opportunity.
“We’re very proud of our continued growth in delivering an essential service with tremendous demand across the country,” said SYNERGY HomeCare Chief Growth Officer Mike Steed. “As we continue to focus on growing with new and existing franchisees, we believe there is strong upside for multi-unit, multi-brand operators.”
Steed continued, “SYNERGY’s turnkey, asset-light franchise model provides a proven support platform, including national marketing and referral partnerships, technology systems and franchise business coaching for growth-minded operators.”
According to Young, home care isn’t a trend – it’s a critical service in a society with an aging population and a rising demand for in-home support. “With over 50 million seniors being 65 and older in America, and 90% of these seniors wanting to age in place in their own homes, compassionate-minded entrepreneurs are realizing there is no better time than now to enter the home care space,” he said.
