Here are three examples of franchise businesses

Promedica24 operates in the Senior Care sector. The brand is growing, with 100 outlets currently in operation, and a desire to expand further. Opening a Promedica24 business requires an affordable initial investment of £40,000. At least £1,000 should come from your own personal investment. These low startup costs make it a good option to pursue for first-time franchisees. Financial aid can be provided in some circumstances.

Another brand worth considering is Home Instead. First launched in 2005, the company is now mature and a leader within the sector, having expanded its franchise community for 15 years. With a significant network of 1,200 locations, the brand knows how to support its franchisees. A substantial initial investment of £90,000 will enable you to start your own Home Instead business. In most cases, your personal investment should represent 30 to 50% of the total amount. Home Instead requires you to personally invest at least £30,000. You could potentially apply for a loan to cover the remaining costs. It is thus less appropriate for new investors.

As a final example, have a look at Seniors Helping Seniors. The brand has a strong network and good exposure, operating in 300 franchise locations.

Many businesses are already operating in the Senior Care sector. We currently have 12 franchise options available in the sector.
