The Opportunity for Mobility Franchises in Missouri

Missouri combines a large and aging population with strong healthcare infrastructure and housing that often favors aging-in-place modifications. The state is home to about 6.27 million people. Residents 65 and older make up about 18.8% of the state—roughly 1.17 million people. About 29.2% of adults 65 and older fell in the past year. Disability reaches 26% at ages 65–74 and 46.9% at 75 and older. Owner-occupied housing sits at 68%, which favors in-home stairlifts, ramps, and bathroom safety work.

Major hospital systems across the state generate steady discharge referrals, including BJC, Mercy, Cox, MU Health Care, and Freeman. VA medical centers in St. Louis, Columbia, and Poplar Bluff expand opportunities for authorized home accessibility work focused on stairlifts, ramps, platform lifts, and bathroom safety solutions.

One location already operates in Platte County, with six additional territories currently available in Chesterfield, Springfield, Columbia, Lee’s Summit, Joplin, and Cape Girardeau. Candidates choose a market that matches their background and goals — not a separate brand. 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.

Stairlifts & Platform Lifts

Two-story and split-level homes across Chesterfield, Springfield, and Columbia create ongoing need for stairlifts and vertical platform lifts.

Bathroom Modifications & Grab Bars

Walk-in showers, grab bars, raised toilets, and related safety upgrades are commonly requested alongside larger accessibility installations.

Lift Chairs & Related Equipment

Lift chairs, specialized beds, vehicle lifts, and complementary products round out the retail offering and support customers who want to remain independent at home.

VA Home Accessibility Solutions

St. Louis, Columbia, and Poplar Bluff VAMCs open pathways for franchisees authorized to supply stairlifts, ramps, platform lifts, and bathroom safety solutions to eligible veterans.
