Michael Folkes and Ahsan Sajjad launched their businesses in Gloucestershire and Hertfordshire respectively, while Raspinder Singh is about to get started in Dartford and Gravesend, Kent.
Michael and Ahsan hit the ground running, with clients waiting for their service to begin once the registrations with the Care Quality Commission have been completed.
Both were already familiar with the Caremark brand. Michael witnessed the service delivered by his father Charles, owner of one of Caremark's top-performing franchises in the network.
He says: "I am delighted to be launching Caremark Cheltenham and thrilled to be working in such a rewarding sector. I see many exciting years ahead and plenty of opportunity to make a difference in people's lives."
Ahsan, who previously co-owned a competitor homecare franchise, is looking forward to building his business in Dacorum and St Albans.
He says: "I love working in social care, working with passionate, caring, involved people and having the opportunity to make significant change for the better in people's lives every day.
"From the very first day I knew the reason I opened this business was to serve my community; our customers are at the heart of everything we do. I look forward to the next five years and to building the business with my new, but already amazing, team!"
