Scooping Up Success: New Scoop Soldiers Franchises in North Carolina

Raleigh-Durham, NC — Scoop Soldiers, the pet waste removal franchise that aims to help pet owners and their four-legged friends by taking on the dirty work of pet ownership, has opened for business with two locations in the Tar Heel state. The 40-plus unit and counting brand opened two franchise locations in the state’s two most populated cities at the start of 2023: Raleigh-Durham and Charlotte. The openings come as Scoop Soldiers continues to grow around the United States as the global market for pet-related services is expected to reach $350 billion by 2027.

With the opening of these two well-positioned Scoop Soldiers locations, pet parents in both Raleigh-Durham and Charlotte will get a much needed break from the unpleasant but necessary dirty work of cleaning up after their canine companions. Pet waste removal services are available for residential and pet-friendly commercial clients such as apartment complexes, pet care centers, hotels and more. Clients can opt for service packages that range from three visits per week to a one-time cleanup for a special event.

The Raleigh-Durham and Charlotte locations are corporate owned and operated, but looking to franchise within these Enhanced Territory markets. A Scoop Soldiers Enhanced Territory is a location that has been operating and growing a customer base, in which a franchisee will buy and take ownership of operations.

“We’re thrilled to be open for business in these two vital North Carolina locations,” said EJ McCoy, Co-Founder of Scoop Soldiers. “North Carolina is seeing some major growth, with a new influx of families and young professionals relocating to cities like Raleigh-Durham and Charlotte. With the demand for pet-related services at an all time high, the time has never been better to join the Scoop Soldiers system.”

These two new locations augment Scoop Soldiers' established growth plan to be coast to coast in 2023, and with that goal in mind, the brand looks to attract new franchisees in target markets such as Seattle, Washington D.C. and Salt Lake City, Utah.

“The demand for services in pet waste removal has significantly increased — people want their time back,” offered McCoy. “People are putting a value on time like I’ve never seen before, and the Scoop Soldiers team is ready to reach even more customers so they can spend time with their family and friends.”
