The Best Multi-Unit Franchise Opportunities: BrightStar Care's Unique Advantage

For experienced franchisees looking to diversify their portfolios with exceptional multi-unit opportunities, BrightStar Care offers a unique advantage with scalable business growth.

Entrepreneurs Andri Purkanto and Chirag Modi are two accomplished multi-unit franchisees from other industries who attest to this. They chose BrightStar Care as their next venture because of our multiple revenue streams, which are designed to support both experienced entrepreneurs and aspiring owners looking for their first business.

Why BrightStar Care Stands Out

Andri transitioned into franchising from a significant tenure in corporate America within the manufacturing and supply chain sectors, while Chirag had a background in engineering and management consulting. While they each had solid careers in their industries, both Chirag and Andri possessed an entrepreneurial spirit and a drive to own a business. Ten years ago, Chirag started franchising with the hair salon brand Great Clips and 15 years ago, Andri started franchising with Great Clips too. He and his business partner Ryan Guzzino purchased BrightStar Care of Baltimore about 5 years ago.

Now, both Chirag and Andri own multiple Great Clips locations in Baltimore, MD, Central PA, and South Central PA areas. However, they each wanted to continue expanding their business portfolios and focused on finding a brand with an established, strong presence that allowed them to build a strong foundation for growth. This led Chirag and Andri to BrightStar Care, where our multiple revenue streams were major draws for the seasoned business owners.

“When you step into a franchise with a system that’s been refined over 20 years, it’s a game-changer,” Chirag explains. Andri agrees, “You’re not reinventing the wheel—you’re leveraging a proven business model and using it as a platform to springboard to the next level”

Multiple Revenue Streams for Diverse Franchise Growth

The diversified revenue streams, which include access to 150+ national accounts, a full continuum of care, and medical staffing, allowed flexibility to Andri and Chirag, who understand the importance of adapting to market changes.

“BrightStar Care’s multiple revenue channels make it possible to pivot when necessary,” Andri shares. “For example, we can do personal care, skilled care and staffing, which helps us maintain steady operations. This adaptability is crucial for long-term business longevity and vibrancy.”

Chirag echoes this sentiment, noting how our diverse payer mix, from private pay to national accounts, creates stability even during economic fluctuations. “The ability to serve a wide range of clients ensures that you’re not reliant on just one revenue stream. That diversity has been a key factor for us,” he explains.

A Business with Purpose

For both Andri and Chirag, BrightStar Care wasn’t just about business—it was also about making a meaningful impact. As seasoned franchisees, they wanted their next venture to align with their values and contribute to their communities.

“The senior care industry is deeply rewarding,” Chirag says. “BrightStar Care’s commitment to delivering a higher standard of care resonated with me. Knowing that we’re making a difference in the lives of families is incredibly fulfilling.”

Andri shares a similar perspective, emphasizing BrightStar Care’s alignment with his personal and professional goals. “BrightStar Care gave me the opportunity to not only grow a business but also learn about healthcare as an industry insider. It’s opened doors to understanding how we can improve lives through care and innovation,” he says.

Leveraging Past Experience for Future Growth

Franchisees transitioning from other industries bring a wealth of knowledge and skills that translate well into BrightStar Care’s model. Both Andri and Chirag applied their expertise in team building, operational management, and customer service to their new ventures.

“Whether it’s managing salons or a home care agency, one thing remains constant—the importance of treating your team well,” Chirag explains. “A motivated, loyal team translates into better service for clients, and that’s true across any industry.”

Andri emphasizes the value of leveraging existing skills while embracing new challenges. “BrightStar Care allowed me to diversify my portfolio while applying what I’ve learned from past experiences. It’s a perfect blend of familiarity and growth,” he says.

A Future Built on Stability and Impact

For franchisees like Andri and Chirag, BrightStar Care represents more than just a business—it’s an opportunity to leave a lasting impact. With our focus on delivering high-quality care, a strong support network, and resilience through multiple revenue streams, both business owners emphasize that BrightStar Care offers a pathway to both financial growth and meaningful work.

“If you’re considering expanding your portfolio or franchising in general, BrightStar Care is an opportunity to make a real difference in your community while building a sustainable business,” Chirag says. “BrightStar Care is more than a franchise—it’s a partnership that helps you grow personally, professionally, and as part of a community”
