National domestic cleaning franchise, Merry Maids has welcomed businesswoman, Lynnette Romeril as its latest investor in Merry Maids of Melton Mowbray and Loughborough. The local franchise operates across north Leicestershire, serving a potential 80,000 customers.

Originally from Jersey, Lynnette held a distinguished career in offshore finance management for many years but a desire to own her own business led her to the UK and an investment in Merry Maids. Based in Frisby-on-the-Wreake, Lynnette already has 14 customers, employs two members of staff and is looking to offer employment opportunities as the business grows.

Lynnette said: “I’ve had experience of working closely with clients and managing a team but my dream has always been to run my own business and employ my own staff. With Merry Maids, I have this opportunity and I’m looking forward to growing my customer base and employing local people. I’m thoroughly enjoying life in Frisby with my two rescue cats, and I look forward to building a successful business here.“

Merry Maids brand operations manager, Catriona Berry added: “Lynnette is a true professional, focussed and determined to make a success of her investment. Merry Maids provides a proven, quality domestic cleaning service to thousands of customers across the UK and we are excited to be able to bring that service to residents within Loughborough, Melton Mowbray and the surrounding areas.”
