Mr. Electric franchisees provide essential and comprehensive electrical services to the domestic and commercial markets. Mr. Electric is also a government-approved installer of charging points for electric vehicles, which is an innovative opportunity for franchisees. On top of that, a number of National Accounts agreements are secured by the head office. Even though some franchisees are seasoned electricians, experience in the field isn’t a prerequisite as this is a management franchise, which means running the business while employees carry out electrical repairs.
