Another 240 jobs may be coming to Dover.

The cleaning company Jan-Pro has decided to open up operations by next year.

The Wilmington News Journal reports that it’s an Atlanta-based company that offers franchises to individual owners.

The paper reports that the company will have a regional franchise which will then be responsible for others to own and operate smaller ones

There could be as many as 80 smaller franchises with a minimum of 3 employees.

The average regional franchise has around seven employees who take care of such tasks as sales, quality control and managing the office.

The lower level jobs pay around $12 an hour with the sales staff picking up around $40-thousand plus commission.
