resale opportunities

As a well established franchise organisation with over 80 territories already allocated, from time to time a franchise resale opportunity may arise; for example when one of our franchisees retires. This can provide an exciting chance to buy a business which is already established.

Buying an existing franchise has many advantages:

  • The ability to generate profits at an earlier stage than starting a business from scratch.
  • Income from day one.
  • An established customer base.
  • Easier to make financial projections as you have past company records.
  • Starting a business with settled and trained staff.
  • Established supplier relationships.

We currently have the following franchise resales available.

There are currently several franchise resale opportunities across the UK and Ireland.

West Scotland

This busy franchise has been run by the present owner for 10 years and continues to generate steady profitable growth. However, after a bit of a health scare the franchisee has decided to retire. The experienced staff offers the full range of sign products and services from conveniently located premises which includes a vehicle bay which can accommodate all but the very largest commercial vehicles. The centre has the skills and in-house technology to offer its customers first class support in all aspects of vehicle graphics, interior and exterior signage, labels and stickers, health and safety signage, wide format digital printing & cutting and exhibition and display graphics.

With excellent customer retention and repeat orders, this centre has a well established customer base, working with several local authorities, prestigious hotels, vehicle fleets, a major bus company, shops, offices, sports grounds and many more.

This is a good opportunity for someone with management / sales experience and the drive to take the business to a new level who is looking to buy into all the benefits of the UK’s No.1 Sign Franchise with the added advantage of having an existing loyal customer base to build on.
