Take a look at three franchise business examples
If working in the Retail industry appeals to you, take a look at The Original Poster Company. First established in 1991, the company is now mature and a leader within the sector, having expanded its franchise network for 29 years. By joining its network of 70 franchisees, you could contribute to this brand's success. If you can't afford the startup costs on your own, you may be eligible for financial aid.
Cash Generator is an interesting franchising opportunity in the Retail industry. Initially established in 1997, Cash Generator has proved itself to be a successful business and leader in the field in its 23 years since opening. The brand runs in 700 franchise locations which make up a strong business community. A total of £240,000, a significant initial investment, is required to open a Cash Generator franchise. You might want to consider getting a loan to cover the startup costs, in which case at least £80,000 of the total investment should come from your personal funds. Due to the higher startup costs, this option is not advisable for first-time franchisees.
Lastly, you could also consider The London Vape Company, which has been running since 2014. This brand is growing quickly, counting five outlets across the country. Starting a London Vape Company business requires an initial investment of £60,000. If you intend to get a loan to cover the startup costs, The London Vape Company asks for a personal investment of at least £30,000. For most franchises, this amount represents 30 to 50% of the total investment. It is thus less appropriate for new investors. Financial assistance can be given in some circumstances.
