The MOLLY MAID Success Story
In 1979, in the Toronto suburb of Mississauga, nurse Adrienne Stringer
along with her husband Chris Stringer, founded MOLLY MAID. People often
ask how they arrived at the name MOLLY MAID, and we will gladly share this
story at our offices at a Discovery Day where we can meet, but equally
important as our name, Adrienne and Chris pioneered the concept of a high
quality housecleaning service, delivered by professionally trained and
uniformed staff driving company identified cars.
In 1980 our Chairman, Jim MacKenzie, along with individuals who today are
still active on our Board of Directors, invested in the Stringers fledgling
company and together they commenced on a journey that has seen MOLLY MAID
grow across Canada and around the world.
Our founders would point to others as the reasons for our success and those others would be our Franchise Owners. Our motto is ‘Businesses aren’t successful people are’. Our Franchise Owners are the class of this industry and together their commitment to the principles our founders instilled are the true reasons for our success.
What Our Franchise Owners Are Saying
MOLLY MAID Franchise Owners are more than business owners - they are partners in making MOLLY MAID a success. Franchise Owners enjoy the financial and personal rewards of their hard work and determination. MOLLY MAID Franchise Owners come from a diverse range of backgrounds in varied industries but they all have one common thread, a strong desire to be successful.
Here are some of their stories:
"A small advertisement in our local newspaper caught my attention and inspired a call to MOLLY MAID and the rest is history. With no existing MOLLY MAID Franchise in Kingston, it was a challenge in the beginning. However with the strength of the MOLLY MAID trademark, assistance from Support Office, hard work and marketing strategies, I have been able to meet my objectives. I have taken the business from $0 sales in 2001 to average weekly sales of over $6,000 /wk in four short years. I have traveled with Barb, all expenses paid, to Portugal and Cuba by achieving the objectives to qualify for the last two incentive trips with MOLLY MAID. And believe me they were fantastic trips. I can't wait to continue my journey with MOLLY MAID."

"As my children were growing older, I felt it was time to return to the work force. I wasn't interested in working for someone else, so I started looking at the possibilities of buying a Franchise. I wasn't interested in working evenings and week-ends, and wanted something I could operate out of my house. MOLLY MAID stood head and shoulders above the rest from the very beginning. After one year in business, I have developed relationships with Franchise Owners, as well as the staff in our Support Office. The dynamic, positive attitude that filters down from the top is evident in everything we do. It is exciting to be in a company that is so professional and competitive, yet so filled with kindness and caring that you feel like part of the family. Purchasing the MOLLY MAID Franchise in Burnaby/New Westminster has been a very positive experience for me and my family. We set new goals daily, and are able to achieve them with the help from Support Office and a little hard work. MOLLY MAID is an excellent company to be part of."
Michele and Ken Yonge, Burnaby/New Westminster, BC
"We researched many opportunities prior to joining MOLLY MAID. We were impressed that MOLLY MAID was a Canadian Franchise and was very professional in our discussions. MOLLY MAID has lived up to our expectation offering support as needed, a proven successful "system" and a respected and well known Trademark. We have been very successful in the business and it has met our objectives both personally and financially. We have had the opportunity for some wonderful trips and have met some very dear friends."
