Jani-King Franchise

Does anybody Know where Paul Michael Haworth ( Forner UK JK director..) is now based . . I have clients who would like to have a very serious discussion with him . . !

last i herd was that he gone to spain with jk he split with his wife but that was a few years ago

Accounts also appear to indicate that they are taking the taking the contracts away from franchisees - look at turnover going up and no of people employed in cleaning. Not much juice however as the gross profit has remained same despite the rise in sales.

Margins are collapsing in other words. DYOR!!

Doesnt look good imho.

BEFORE YOU BUY A FRANHISE ASK YOUR ACCOUNTANT TO LOOK AT THE ACCOUNTS AND GIVE YOU INDEPENDENT ADVICE. THE NUMBERS DO NOT LIE.

DO YOUR RESEARCH

Jani King accounts - they are loosing money

Losing turnover as contracts get lost

Franchises going under

Not many new franchises coming


A bit more research - they appear to be factoring debts with £1m+ owed in "other creditors" and secured on assets and also they have 300 employees doing cleaning and on payroll

If they lose assounts and rise in minimum wage rises, its not hard to imagine a noxious cocktail. Would be good if the banks get bruised here imho. Just my view of the accounts which in public domain. Doyour research.

To Private Investigator
This site is FULL of Jani King PLANTS
They make one comment about JK to try and find out who is posting
Can you POST YOUR COMPANY NAME AND WEB SITE PLEASE
THEN YOU MAY GET SOME RESPONSE DIRECT TO YOUR COMPANY RATHER THAN SOMEONE POSTING PAULS LOCATION ON HERE.

SAYING YOU ARE A PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR YOU WOULD THINK THAT YOU HAD TO BE PRECISE WITH SUCH THINGS AS THE SPELLING OF PEOPLES NAMES IN LOCATING THE CORRECT PERSON
HIS NAME IS HOWARTH
I HAVE A SUGGESTION
WHY NOT GET DOG THE BOUNTY HUNTER TO FIND HIM

The correct spelling is HAWORTH

There are a few new JK videos out on youtube. ALL DATED JUNE 2011 paul is featured in three of them,ITS AS IF HE DID NOT GET THE FIRST TWO RIGHT, spelling is Howarth on the links, BUT HAWORTH ELSEWHERE.
BTW he does not look well at all.
A new video from Ian confirming they only have a few franchisees as well.
The chat room always seems to go quiet when you mention PLANTS.

I stand corrected but could not alter last comment,
checked it out from other source, if im wrong i appologise

will check out u tube now cant wait to c them NOT VERY NICE PEOPLE

Jani King UK have removes ALL the old YOU TUBE Videos
I WONDER WHY
MAYBE BECAUSE ALL THE EX FRANCHISEES THAT MADE COMMENTS ARE NO LONGER THERE
I WONDER IF ANYONE HAS THEM SAVED TO DISC TO VIEW OFF-LINE
CAN ANY ONE REMEMBER THE NAMES OFF ALL THE EX FRANCHISEES THAT MADE VIDEO COMMENTS.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bagman, myself and my solicitor has trying to call you on the number you have left here unsuccessfully.

WELL, WE CAN WRITE AS MUCH OF ALL THE BAD EXPERIENCES WITH JANI KING HERE AS WE WANT, BUT THEY ARE STILL SELLING FRANCHISES WITH ALL THEIR LIES TO THE UNSUSPECTED. I WISH TO GOD THAT THE TIME WILL COME FOR THESE FUCKERS TO STAND TRAIL FOR THE INJUSTICE THEY HAVE CAUSED TO SO MANY. AND THAT IAN AND PAUL SHARE A PRISON CELL WITH SEX HUNGRY INMATES THAT WILL TEACH THEM SOME DAMN RESPECT.

YOU WILL FIND HIM HIDING IN THE SPAIN OFFICE OR SOMEWHERE NEARBY WHERE HE CAN DRINK OR HANG OUT IN BROTHELS. IF YOU ARE A GOOD PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR IT WILL BE EASY FINDING HIM. IAN AND PAUL ARE BORN WOMANISERS, SO CHECK OUT ALL THE BROTHELS IN AND AROUND THE OFFICE IN SPAIN AS WELL. OH, AND IF YOU WANT TO YOU CAN HANG OUT AT THE OFFICE IN KINGSTON, THEY WILL TURN UP THERE SOONER OR LATER. GOOD LUCK AND KEEP US POSTED. IF YOU NEED HELP JUST LET ME KNOW. AND IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE TWO LOOK LIKE, THE ONE HAS NO HAIR AND SHORT, THE OTHER GREY AND SHORT AND BOTH VERY LOAD AND FULL OF THEM SELFS.

Thanks for all the responses. It is because of the JK plants that I decided not to post my company name. My Clients only want Paul Haworth not the other one!
Trouble is they won't pay my expenses to go to Spain. The Janiking Spain website has had its account suspended. They may have pulled the same stunt they did in California... They recruited Hispanic franchisees and did all the initial chit chat in Spanish and then gave them ENGLISH CONTRACTS . !
Google for Garcia v jani king california. I include this in the hope of showing I am NOT a plant. Unfortunately the Data Protection Act is a B***h and breaking it could get me 5 years inside. PH may be a disreputable wide boy but i bet he has well paid lawyers. That is why I cannot say anymore on a public forum.

Also one poster suggested I hang around JK office in Kingston. He is no longer a director of JK UK. But I cannot find out if his name is still on the UK master franchise.

Has anybody got any other ideas. if so is there a way of sending private messages on here . . ?

DOES THIS SOUND LIKE SOMETHING THAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOU
Out of 17 franchisees listed in Jani-King’s Los Angeles/Colton region, we reached only two that were still active. An Ohio woman listed as a current Coverall franchisee said, “I gave them $16,000 and didn’t get squat. After two years, the most I made was $600 a month.”
Celeste Iles, of Rialto, California, said, “I paid Jan-Pro of San Bernardino $5,000 for $1,600 worth of work every month. Before I paid the money, I was told that I’d get accounts in the Rialto area and that I could decline jobs in cities I didn’t ask to be in. Once I started, they offered me one cleaning account in Chino, which is 25 miles away, and others 15 to 20 miles away. When I turned those down, they said the offers fulfilled their contractual obligation. They did give me a few little accounts, but I never got my maximum volume.I cleaned one building diligently for over a year. Suddenly, the person in the Jan-Pro office said my level of cleaning went down and I lost the account. When I went back to the customer, they told me they never had a problem with me. I discovered that Jan-Pro would take accounts away from one franchisee to sell them to another franchisee.”
