Mobility City is a fast-growing, service-driven franchise specializing in the repair, rental, sales, and sanitization of mobility equipment such as wheelchairs, scooters, hospital beds, and lift chairs. As the only national brand focused exclusively on providing mobility solutions for seniors, healthcare facilities, and individuals with mobility challenges, Mobility City is filling a critical gap in a booming market.
With the aging population in the United States projected to reach 80 million by 2040, the demand for mobility equipment and related services is surging. Unlike typical retail businesses, Mobility City operates with a multi-revenue stream model—offering in-home repairs, equipment rentals, sales of new and pre-owned devices, and cleaning/sanitization contracts for hospitals, nursing homes, and rehab centers.
Positioned as a trusted, essential business, Mobility City franchises combine purpose with profit, allowing investors to join a brand with strong market positioning, nationwide recognition, and long-term growth potential in the senior care and healthcare support industries.
