ValorBuilt Fence, a residential fencing brand backed by a fence distributor with eight Midwest distribution centers, is recruiting its first franchisees. The company lists more than 50 available territories in ten regions. As of late September 2026, it does not publish its franchise fee, investment range or royalty.


According to its website, ValorBuilt Fence grew out of what the company describes as the fifth largest fence distributor in North America. The brand cites more than 60 years of experience in the fence industry. The move comes as the IFA’s 2026 Franchising Economic Outlook, produced with FRANdata, lists commercial and residential services among the fastest growing franchise industries this year. The same forecast puts the number of franchise establishments across all sectors at 845,000 by the end of 2026, up 1.5%.

The franchise site describes a parent company active in manufacturing, distribution and installation. It lists existing distribution centers in Omaha, Lincoln and Grand Island, Nebraska, as well as Minneapolis, Fargo, Madison, Kansas City and Sioux City. A Dallas center is marked “coming soon.” Franchisees would source materials through that network, which places the franchisor upstream of the units it franchises.

ValorBuilt Fence focuses on residential fencing, with commercial work as a second line. The brand says its catalog covers more than 1,250 fence types, styles and sizes, from wood and vinyl to aluminum, chain link and wrought iron. The support listed includes an operations manual, job management software and marketing materials.

The company also describes strong gross margins, low staffing needs and lower start-up costs than similar franchises, without giving figures. It says it is looking for candidates with leadership experience, entrepreneurs and community-minded owners.

None of the brand’s public pages reviewed state a fee, investment range, royalty or capital requirement. Under the FTC Franchise Rule, 16 CFR Part 436, those figures appear in the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD): Item 5 for the initial fee, Item 6 for recurring fees and Item 7 for the total initial investment.

For a supplier-backed system, Item 8 also applies. It discloses which purchases must be made from the franchisor or approved suppliers, and whether the franchisor earns revenue on them. The FDD must be delivered at least 14 calendar days before any signing or payment.

The territories on offer span the Southeast, Florida, the Mid-Atlantic, the Great Lakes, the Upper Midwest, Texas and Oklahoma, the Southwest, the Mountain West, the Pacific Northwest and New England.

The brand’s locations page listed no open locations at the time of writing. Several states require a franchisor to register or file its FDD before offering franchises there. The first franchised openings will show up in the Item 20 outlet tables of later FDD editions.

Two other parts of the FDD cover questions the website leaves open. Item 1 identifies the franchisor, its parent and its affiliates, which names the distributor behind the brand. Item 12 states whether a territory is exclusive and whether the franchisor keeps the right to sell through other channels inside it.
