Discover The Latest Franchises at Franchise Planet

New franchises are constantly joining our franchise directory. Some are new to the world of franchising and are looking to recruit their first franchisees, whilst others are established brands filling the last few gaps in their coverage of the UK.

Some franchises may be listed as a franchise resale - an already established franchisee territory but the owner is looking to sell their business and move to pastures new. With franchise resales, you should expect a higher price to pay but you'll be getting a turnkey business which has an existing customer base and is already trading.

New Franchises in the UK

When a business is deemed profitable and sustainable for growth, the owner may wish to franchise their business. This means that the business owner will be selling entrepreneurs the license to trade and the operating systems in place.

There are many reasons why businesses decide to go down the franchising route. One of the reasons is wider brand recognition. By making your business scalable and by opening up outlets across a vaster area, more and more people will become aware of your brand. Not only does this help the business owner, but it'll also positively impact any franchisees that invest.

Minimise Risk with a Proven Business Opportunity

Franchise businesses follow an operations manual and franchisees agree to abide by the franchise agreement. This ensures streamlined, successful replication of the business model.

Franchising is a fantastic choice when it comes to running a business. It's a lot safer than starting up a business by yourself, because you've got a proven system behind you. Because you'll be running the franchisor's business in your own area, you'll still be your own boss and have control over many aspects. It won't be complete control, because you'll still need to follow the franchise operations manual and marketing / branding guidelines. But this is for the best, because keeping everything consistent ensures everyone follows the same business model structure.

New franchises are businesses which have made the decision to franchise. In many cases, as well as having the support of a franchisor, you'll also have a team of franchise consultants to help the process of recruiting the first franchisees go smoothly. A franchise consultant is someone who helps a business owner to get their franchising off the ground as swiftly and seamlessly as possible. Just like you buying your first franchise, for a business owner to franchise their business, it is a big step forward. Ensuring all of the documents are in place, planning discovery days and ensuring a team is in place to handle enquiries.

But the important thing to remember is - if a business has made the decision to franchise, there should be a good chance of the business being profitable. Make sure you carry out your due diligence and speak with the franchisor and franchise consultancy experts. Who knows, you could invest in a new franchise this year and by the time your franchise renews, the business could be the next big thing?
