In this episode of the Franchise Fit Podcast, Lance Graulich sits down with Jon Floyd, owner and operator of HOODZ, to talk about building a commercial kitchen cleaning franchise from the ground up. Jon’s path into the business started in an unexpected place: aboard U.S. Navy ships in 1997, where cleaning kitchen hoods was sometimes handed to him as punishment. Years later, after retiring from his military career and exploring several business ideas, Jon found HOODZ while researching franchise opportunities. He launched his franchise in 2023 and has since expanded his interests across multiple states.
