## Story

Natalie Black, CEO of Comfort Keepers®, was recently featured in Franchising Magazine USA’s Women in Franching series, highlighting how she is redefining leadership in the franchising world by combining business expertise with a deep personal commitment to senior care.

Under her guidance, the global in-home care franchise continues to thrive, with a mission to Elevate the Human Spirit™ — helping seniors find joy and purpose in daily life. With over 600 locations worldwide and an average unit volume (AUV) of $1.1 million, Comfort Keepers has cemented its place in the rapidly growing $900 billion senior care market.

“I had a personal connection to home care, having experienced its impact in my own family,” Black said. “That understanding, combined with the business side I learned along the way, has allowed me to lead Comfort Keepers with both heart and strategy.”

With 10,000 baby boomers turning 65 daily, the demand for quality senior care is skyrocketing. Comfort Keepers aims to meet this need by awarding 36 new franchise territories in 2024, targeting markets like Boston, St. Louis, Houston and Seattle. Looking ahead, Black remains focused on sustainable growth while ensuring that both franchisees and caregivers have the resources they need to provide exceptional care.

“This is a business that requires both a head for business and a heart for people,” Black said. “If you’re passionate about making a difference while building a successful business, Comfort Keepers is an incredible opportunity.”
