The Opportunity for Mobility Franchises in Kentucky

Kentucky is home to about 4.61 million people. Residents 65 and older make up about 18% of the state — roughly 827,000 people. About 30.6% of adults 65 and older fell in the past year. Functional disability among that group is 39.3%. Fall hospitalizations among older adults reached 10,266 in 2025. Nearly half of those stays involved a hip fracture.

Two Mobility Plus stores already operate in Kentucky: Louisville–Middletown on Shelbyville Road and Florence on U.S. 42 in Northern Kentucky. Those stores cover the east-end Louisville metro and the Cincinnati-south suburbs. They do not cover Lexington, south-central Kentucky, or the west.

Open awards should land in Lexington, Bowling Green, Owensboro, Elizabethtown, Richmond, and Paducah. Every new Mobility Plus franchise includes both the showroom and home-services verticals. Honorably discharged veterans may qualify for a 10% discount on the $60,000 franchise fee.

Two Stores, Large Interior Still Open

Louisville–Middletown and Florence cover the I-64/I-75 edges. Lexington, Bowling Green, and western Kentucky are separate boards.

Two Verticals, One Local Brand

The showroom and home-services team operate under one roof, so owners can follow customers from the store floor into the home.

Do Not Stack the Existing Rings

New awards should sit outside Jefferson/Oldham and Boone/Kenton. Elizabethtown works south of the Middletown ring.

The Mobility Plus Model in Kentucky

New franchisees operate two verticals under one roof. That combination fits open Kentucky markets well: Lexington and Bowling Green support a visible showroom, while Owensboro, Elizabethtown, Richmond, and Paducah support in-home installations outside the existing Louisville and Florence rings.

Retail Mobility Store

A branded showroom for the sales, service, and rental of scooters, power chairs, wheelchairs, lift chairs, specialized beds, vehicle lifts, and accessories.

Home Services

A mobile team for the sales, installation, service, and rental of stairlifts, modular ramps, vertical platform lifts, residential elevators, grab bars, and related fall-prevention solutions.
