Blind & Window Business
Every home is unique it in its own way, and homeowners want to add to their homes’ uniqueness. Interior blinds, shutters, shades, draperies and window furnishings can do just this, while giving the homeowner the comfort of privacy in their own home.
The blind & window industry has recently focused its efforts on promoting family saftey with window treatments because it is estimated that as many as one billion blinds and corded window coverings are in circulation in the U.S., and corded window coverings are in nearly 17 million households with children under the age of six years old. The Window Covering Safety Council (WCSC) is dedicated to providing consumer information and educational materials on window-cord safety.
Blind & window franchises consult with consumers about the consumer’s budget, concerns and ideas. They include the consumer in the process every step of the way, from deciding which window treatments best fit the family, to picking out colors, fabrics and styles. The majority of blind & window franchises offer the latest blind & window technology, including electric-powered and battery-powered window shades. Once the consumer decides which window treatment suits them best, the custom-designed window treatments are prepared by well known manufacturers in the industry.
Whether the consumer is looking to solve issues with lighting, privacy, energy efficiency or window treatment safety, blind & window franchises assist the consumer with solving his/her concerns.
In 2007, there were eight blind & window franchisors in the U.S. Of those eight, there were 1,598 U.S. blind & window franchises, 59 Canadian blind & window franchises and three foreign blind & window franchises. The average startup costs for a blind & window franchise is between $75,575 and $122,800. The lowest startup cost for a blind & window franchise is $30,000, and the highest blind & window franchise startup cost is $126,500.
