Ed Murphy and Michael Kearney

Ed and Michael are established leaders in the Irish franchising community, having won the Irish Franchiser of the Year award twice for other franchising companies. After deciding in 2004 to diversify their franchising-based company, on St. Patrick's Day 2005 they became Home Instead Senior Care's Master Franchisee for Ireland. Given their prior record of business success, it's no surprise that Ed and Michael subsequently shattered every established company sales mark as they established the Home Instead Senior Care International Master Franchise in Ireland. Within their first ten months of operation, they had already captured almost the entire Dublin senior care market and were poised to expand countrywide.


"We were extremely impressed by everything about Home Instead Senior Care - the company, its people, and, of course, its mission, In particular, however, we appreciated the quality and extent of the training provided to Home Instead Senior Care International Franchise Partner, which not only encompasses business operations, but also emphasizes in-country franchise development and support. Essentially, we were taught exactly how to develop our own market-specific franchise system, and thus make Home Instead Senior Care Ireland's number-one brand for non-medical senior care."
