Working with his father in the janitorial supply business, Jerry P. McCauley noticed the need for a full-time deodorizing system in public restrooms. The products McCauley saw on the market acted only as air fresheners and did little to actually deodorize. McCauley spent the next few years researching the problem and developing solutions, and in 1960 he unveiled the Aire-Master company and system: room deodorizing machines, chemical deodorants and supplies for restroom fixture cleaning. Employees for the company installed and maintained Aire-Master systems and cleaned restrooms. Aire-Master began franchising in 1977 and currently operates franchises in the United States and Canada.Veteran Incentives 10% off franchise fee#58 in Gator's Top franchises.#425 in Franchise 500 for 2020.
