How much does a Conserva Irrigation franchise make?
The average Conserva Irrigation unit reported $773,337 of revenue in the 2026 FDD, and the median reported $543,386. The brand’s disclosure document puts revenue after cost of goods and required expenses at 20.8% of revenue. Fees come off the top first, at about 9.5% of sales across royalty, brand fund and the rest of the stack. Revenue is not income. Cost of goods, required marketing and the franchise fees come out of that figure, and rent, office wages and owner pay do not. The figures for the highest-selling and lowest-selling businesses are below.
Top performers
What separates the top Conserva Irrigation performers
Conserva Irrigation splits its locations into groups instead of publishing one average. The top group averaged $1,883,523 a year. The lowest averaged $207,180. Both run the same brand, on the same agreement, paying the same fees. The middle location sold $543,386. The average was $773,337. More than half the system is below the number the brand quotes.
Decided before you open
- Site and trade area.The top band sells 9.1× the bottom band. Catchment, daytime population and neighboring businesses affect where a location falls.
- Territory.This model sells from a territory quoted at 300,000 people, with no storefront. Population density sets how much driving sits between jobs.
- Opening cost range.Opening costs $125,800 to $159,500, a 1.3× range inside one brand.
- Fees and the minimum.Fees run about 9.5% of sales. A minimum fee also applies, so lower-selling locations pay a higher effective rate. Work out the sales level where the percentage overtakes the minimum.
Live operating levers
- Products and materials.Products and materials take 44.8% of sales, against 20.8% left after cost of goods and required expenses. The levers are buying terms, price discipline and waste.
- Visits.Track how many visits happen, what each one is worth, and how many customers book the next one before they leave.
Context you underwrite around
- Locations included.These figures cover 66 of 210 locations. Locations open less than the full year, brand-owned, or not meeting the reporting criteria are excluded.

Customers and visits
Customers, visits and revenue per customer by third, 2024
| Third | Customers | Visits per customer | Revenue per customer | Revenue per visit | Package customers |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Top third, average | 1,394 | 2.6 | $1,518.26 | $734.48 | 56.5% |
| Middle third, average | 491 | 1.9 | $943.06 | $468.37 | 23.9% |
| Bottom third, average | 259 | 1.6 | $600.96 | $317.65 | 6.0% |
| All 63, average | 715 | 2.0 | $1,020.76 | $506.84 | 28.8% |
| All 63, median | 482 | 1.9 | $957.96 | $467.17 | 22.1% |
| All 63, range | 168 – 5,290 | 1.3 – 4.2 | $347.38 – $2,207.81 | $174.77 – $1,316.90 | 0.0% – 86.9% |
As the brand reported it.
715 customers at 2.0 visits and $506.84 a visit gives $729,843. * That is about what an average Conserva Irrigation business in this group takes in a year. Three numbers, each of which an owner can count on a Monday morning. Very few filings in this library publish all three.
The top third serves 1,394 customers and the bottom third serves 259. That is 5.4 times. And the gap widens on the way through: 2.6 visits against 1.6, then $734.48 a visit against $317.65. Stack the three and revenue per customer runs $1,518.26 against $600.96, 2.5 times on a single customer relationship.
Package penetration runs 56.5% at the top third and 6.0% at the bottom. The package is the mechanism: a spring turn-on, mid-season checks and a winterization is three visits booked in advance. 1.6 visits for a business selling repairs one call at a time. Visits per customer and package share are the same pattern told twice.
One extra visit per customer is worth $506.84 a customer. At 715 customers, that is $362,391 of revenue *. The median business runs 1.9 visits; the top runs 4.2. This is the single largest lever on the page, and it is sold.
Revenue per visit runs $174.77 to $1,316.90. That is 7.5 times. Installation work has a far larger ticket than a repair call, so this measure is largely a read on job mix. A business at $317.65 a visit is running a repair book; one at $734.48 has installation volume inside it.
Revenue by group, year to September 2025
| Band | Franchisees | Average years in business | Average revenue | Median revenue | Range | Multi-territory |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Above $1,000,000 | 14 | 5.8 | $1,883,523 | $1,676,428 | $1,037,238 – $5,445,439 | 14 (100%) |
| $600,000 to $1,000,000 | 16 | 4.2 | $772,156 | $748,896 | $605,845 – $972,635 | 13 (81%) |
| $300,000 to $600,000 | 20 | 4.1 | $450,077 | $457,828 | $312,160 – $578,136 | 17 (85%) |
| Below $300,000 | 16 | 3.7 | $207,180 | $213,290 | $78,605 – $298,795 | 10 (63%) |
| All 66 | 66 | n/a | $773,337 | $543,386 | $78,605 – $5,445,439 | 54 (82%) |
As the brand reported it.
Every franchisee above $1,000,000 holds more than one territory. All 14 of them do, averaging 5.8 years in business. Below $300,000, 63% are multi-territory and the average years open is 3.7 years. So holding ground is necessary to reach seven figures here and nowhere near sufficient. Ten Conserva Irrigation businesses hold multiple territories and each bills under $300,000.
The median is $543,386 against an average of $773,337. That is a gap of $229,951, and only 21 of 66 reach the average. The top group's own average of $1,883,523 is 2.4 times the system average and 9.1 times the bottom group's $207,180.
The top revenue group has been open 2.1 years longer than the bottom group. That is 5.8 years in the top group and 3.7 in the bottom. Two years of trading separates a business billing $1,883,523 from one billing $207,180.
System revenue grew from $6,478,227 to $53,308,274 in seven years. Yearly growth ran 61.7%, 31.3%, 46.9%, 54.7%, 27.6%, 17.3% and 13.9%, and it has slowed in each of the last three years. Revenue per territory rose from $96,690 to $253,849 across the same period *, so the system is deepening as well as widening.
Where the money goes
Revenue less required costs, 2024
| Line | Average | Share of revenue | Median |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | $813,066 | 100.0% | $545,872 |
| Labor | $228,004 | 28.0% | $160,439 |
| Materials | $136,864 | 16.8% | $89,665 |
| Equipment rental | $6,111 | 0.8% | $1,338 |

| Vehicle | $55,857 | 6.9% | $34,856 |
| Insurance | $29,616 | 3.6% | $19,231 |
| Bank and merchant fees | $21,813 | 2.7% | $13,820 |
| IT and telephone | $20,930 | 2.6% | $12,637 |
| Small tools, equipment and uniforms | $5,120 | 0.6% | $2,627 |
| Licenses and permits | $3,076 | 0.4% | $1,290 |
| Remaining, before office and owner wages | $168,933 | 20.8% | n/a |
As the brand reported it, reordered here by size below the gross profit line.
$168,933 remains on $813,066, before office wages. That is 20.8%. Add an operations manager, a dispatcher and the owner’s own salary and the true bottom line is lower than that. An owner setting this figure against a profit line elsewhere would be comparing two different things.
Labor and materials take 44.8% of revenue. That is $228,004 and $136,864. Materials run 17.3% system-wide and stretch from 5.3% to 50.7% across the 63 reporting businesses, a range that says job mix and buying discipline matter far more than scale does.
Royalties and the national fund take 9.1% and local marketing takes another 7.7%. That is $136,742 combined, 16.8% of revenue, and 30.9% of the gross profit *. Brand and demand generation is the second largest block in this model after the crews and the parts.
Vehicle expense is 6.9% of revenue and excludes insurance and depreciation. That is $55,857 at the average, $34,856 at the median. Across the 63 it runs 0.1% to 38.1%, with the bottom third averaging 11.4%. On a business where the technician's van is the production unit, fleet decisions show up here with real weight.
Gross profit across the 63 runs from a negative 7.7% to 90.6%. The median is 52.6% and the average 52.3%. That is a 98.3-point range on the same trade with the same suppliers. The middle third sits between 47.9% and 56.3%, so the dispersion is entirely at the two ends.
Labor as a share of revenue runs 0.0% to 64.4%. The median is 29.9%. A zero means the owner performs the work personally with no direct wages booked. That is worth knowing when reading the highest gross profits in the table. A 90.6% gross profit usually means the labor is the owner's own unpaid time.
One territory or three
Single-territory and multi-territory franchisees
| Measure | Single-territory | Multi-territory |
|---|---|---|
| Franchisees | 12 | 54 |
| Territories held | 12 | 175 |
| Average revenue | $408,808 | $854,343 * |
| Median revenue | $317,342 | n/a |
| Revenue range | $95,581 – $972,635 | $78,605 – $5,445,439 |
| Revenue per territory * | $408,808 | $263,626 |
| gross profit, top group | 77.8% (top half) | 62.2% (top third) |
| gross profit, lowest group | 53.7% (bottom half) | 36.4% (bottom third) |
| Labor share, top group | 7.1% | 21.8% |
| Labor share, lowest group | 26.0% | 41.7% |
| Customers, top group | 592 | 1,493 |
| Customers, lowest group | 259 | 268 |
Revenue, margin, labor and customer figures are as the brand reported it. Revenue per territory and the multi-territory average revenue are marked *, derived from the 66-franchisee total of $51,040,242 less the single-territory group.
One territory produces $408,808 on its own; a territory inside a multi-territory business produces $263,626. That is 55% more from the same amount of ground *. The reason is visible in the customer rows. The lowest-selling multi-territory third serves 268 customers across an average of 3.2 territories. The lowest-selling single-territory half serves 259 across one.
Single-territory gross profits run 53.7% to 77.8%; multi-territory 36.4% to 62.2%. The whole single-territory range sits above the multi-territory bottom third. Part of that is owner labor going unbooked, single-territory labor share runs as low as 7.1%. Part is that a smaller, denser book has less drive time between jobs.
Every franchisee above $1,000,000 of revenue holds more than one territory. So the two findings sit together: territory count is how a business gets large, and territory intensity is how it gets profitable. The businesses that do both are the 14 in the top group averaging $1,883,523.
Ten multi-territory businesses bill under $300,000. That is 63% of the bottom group. At $263,626 of revenue per territory across the multi-territory group, a second territory adds roughly a quarter of a million dollars of revenue and the advertising requirement adds $20,000 of committed spend against it.
A second territory costs $40,000 and a third $30,000. The first costs $49,500, so three territories cost $119,500 against $148,500. An existing franchisee of 18 months or more buying a contiguous territory without a broker takes 20% off the then-current fee. Cheap ground is the easy part; the per-territory numbers are the argument for filling what you hold first.
Fees and what it costs to open
Brand fees by annual revenue
| Revenue | Royalty | Effective royalty rate | National fund | Total | Share of revenue |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $5,445,439, highest reported | $302,272 | 5.55% | $22,500 | $324,772 | 5.96% |
| $1,883,523, top band average | $124,176 | 6.59% | $22,500 | $146,676 | 7.79% |
| $813,066, cost-table average | $61,915 | 7.61% | $12,196 | $74,111 | 9.11% |
| $543,386, system median | $43,037 | 7.92% | $8,151 | $51,188 | 9.42% |
| $408,808, single-territory average | $32,705 | 8.00% | $6,132 | $38,837 | 9.50% |
| $207,180, bottom band average | $16,574 | 8.00% | $3,108 | $19,682 | 9.50% |
Ours, built from the published schedule and applied to filed revenue figures.
Franchise fees take 9.50% of revenue at $207,180 and 5.96% at $5,445,439. That is a 3.54-point difference *, driven by the royalty stepping down and the national fund stopping at $1,500,000. On the system median of $543,386 the load is 9.42%, so three quarters of this system pays close to the top of the range.
Crossing $500,000 of year-to-date revenue drops the marginal rate to 7%. Crossing $1,000,000 drops it to 6% and $1,500,000 to 5%. Because the groups run on the calendar year, revenue booked in November costs less royalty than the same revenue booked in March. For a seasonal trade with a spring turn-on and an autumn winterization, that timing is partly structural.
Contiguous territories may aggregate revenue to reach a lower group. Two territories billing $400,000 each reach the 7% group together where they would each sit at 8% apart, worth $3,000 a year *. That is a real reason to buy contiguous, alongside the drive-time argument.
Minimum advertising requirement
| Territories held | Required each calendar year | As a share of single-territory average revenue | As a share of bottom-band average revenue |
|---|---|---|---|
| One | $40,000 | 9.8% | 19.3% |
| Two | $60,000 | n/a | 29.0% |
| Three | $80,000 | n/a | 38.6% |
| Each further territory | +$20,000 | n/a | n/a |
The requirement is as the brand reported it. The share columns are marked *, applying it to the filed single-territory average of $408,808 and the filed bottom-group averages of $207,180.
The median reported local marketing investment is $36,232 against a $40,000 minimum for a single territory. And 45 of the 51 businesses in that table hold more than one, where the minimum is $60,000 or more. Older agreements account for part of the gap and the franchisor's right to collect and spend the shortfall accounts for why it matters.
At the bottom group's $207,180 of revenue, two territories have a $60,000 advertising requirement. 29.0% of revenue *, against a gross profit that averages 52.3% system-wide. For those ten businesses the minimum advertising charge is over half the gross profit before a technician is paid.
Reported marketing runs 0.7% to 61.6% of revenue. The median is 8.3%. The top third spends 4.0% and the bottom third 21.7%. That is mostly the same denominator problem seen elsewhere on this page. A fixed dollar requirement against a variable revenue line punishes the small.

From Item 5 of the Conserva Irrigation 2026 FDD. The costs on this page use the full initial franchise fee for one unit, before any discount.
The territory costs 16.5 cents a head, whatever its size. That is $49,500 for 300,000 people and $0.165 for each one above that. A clean, checkable price, and set against the single-territory average revenue of $408,808, a full territory returns its own fee in about 44 days of billing *.
$40,000 of the build is the first year's advertising requirement. A third of the low column, and it is the same $40,000 the contract asks for every year afterwards. So the investment table and the ongoing obligation overlap: this line is a recurring cost shown once.
The build is 0.31 to 0.39 times the single-territory average revenue. That is $125,800 to $159,500 against $408,808 *. Light in absolute terms (there is a van, a set of tools and a month of parts) with $89,500 of the low column going to the franchise fee and the advertising commitment.
Working capital (cash to run the business day to day) of $15,000 to $30,000 covers three months. The trade bills in spring and autumn and goes quiet in between, and an advertising requirement of $40,000 a year arrives regardless. The seasonal royalty abatement at the franchisor's discretion is the only relief the schedule offers, and it applies to the $1,000 monthly minimum.

Contiguous territories in one market may aggregate revenue to reach a lower group. The national branding and marketing fee is 1.5% on the first $1,500,000 of each calendar year and zero above. A digital marketing fee runs $300 a month, rising to as much as $400. The individual advertising investment requires a minimum of $40,000 a year for one territory, $60,000 for two and $20,000 for each further one, spent with third parties. The franchisor may collect and spend the minimum on the franchisee's behalf. Transfers cost $10,000 per territory.
Who does bookkeeping for a Conserva Irrigation franchise?
Four things shape the close here. The royalty runs on calendar year-to-date revenue with groups at $500,000, $1,000,000 and $1,500,000, so the effective rate falls through the year and resets every January. The accrual rate is a moving number, and for a multi-territory business the aggregation rules decide which group applies. The national fund stops at $1,500,000 of annual revenue, a second threshold on the same calendar. The individual advertising investment is a dollar minimum of $40,000 or more that the franchisor may collect and spend on the owner’s behalf. So what counts toward it is a cash question. The operating measures worth tracking monthly are unique customers, visits per customer and revenue per visit, because they multiply back to revenue and each one names a different fix. Underneath all of it, the 20.8% left on the table is before office wages and owner pay. So an owner needs their own full profit and loss to know where they actually stand. Averan provides bookkeeping, controller, and fractional CFO support for franchise owners and has Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisors on the team.
