## Story

LAKEWOOD, Colo. - Oxi Fresh Carpet Cleaning has been listed for the 12th time in Entrepreneur magazine’s Franchise 500®. The Denver-based company was ranked No. 469 overall due to its steady growth throughout 2020.

“To be ranked in Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500 is a true honor that all businesses strive for, and I am incredibly proud of the hard work our franchisees and team have put in to help us earn this ranking,” stated CEO and founder Jonathan Barnett. “Throughout 2020, COVID-19 caused businesses of all kinds to face enormous challenges, but our concept proved its resiliency and continued to grow and serve new communities.”

“Oxi Fresh continues to demonstrate its ability to grow through innovation, strong franchise locations, and a committed team,” added Barnett. “We are eager to continue our mission to provide communities with access to high quality, eco-friendly carpet cleaning services. Our services are especially important during this time when the need for cleanliness is at an all-time high.”

Founded by Barnett in 2006, Oxi Fresh is an eco-friendly carpet cleaning franchise concepts. After working with a team of chemists, Barnett developed an environmentally-friendly, oxygenated carpet cleaning procedure that utilizes only two gallons of water per home - compared to the 40-50 gallons of water required by other carpet cleaners. The innovative cleaning procedure allows carpets to dry in an hour on average, which is far less than the 24 hour dry time required by traditional carpet cleaners.

Oxi Fresh has helped save tens of millions of gallons of water through the use of its proprietary cleaning process. They have also donated generously to Water.org, a nonprofit that helps families get access to safe water and sanitation solutions.
