Business London Franchise Programme
If you are considering setting up a franchise, Business London can help.
Most people will be aware of famous franchises such as McDonald’s, Pizza Hut and Thorntons. Franchising is the granting of a licence by one person (the franchisor) to another (the franchisee), which entitles the franchisee to trade under the name or trademark of the franchisor.
Some people prefer the idea of owning a franchise, because they do not need to come up with a business idea of their own. There are many other advantages associated with running a franchise business: they stay in business longer than any other business start-up with 88% remaining in business after eight years; and over 90% of them make a profit within five years*. The amount of money needed to start up a franchise business varies and can be as little as £10,000. Major banks readily provide finance for those wanting to start a franchise business because it is a proven business model.

Why not book a 1-2-1 advisory session?
Together with the seminars covering the basics of franchising, the programme will provide you with the opportunity to receive personal advice from an experienced business adviser, who will help you identify and set up a franchise that is suitable for you. The service includes: providing practical information about the different types of franchise; providing you with ‘hands on’ support on purchasing your franchise; support with raising funds from banks (and other funding sources); legal support in buying the franchise; and mentoring from a person who has purchased and is successfully running a franchise business.
