Take a look at these three business examples

If you are interested in starting a business in the Senior Care sector, Seniors Helping Seniors could be an option for you. The brand operates in 300 franchise locations which make up a strong business network. Good to know: you won't need any premises as you can work from home. When investing in this franchise, you could be eligible for financial aid.

Another interesting franchise option is Promedica24. By joining its 100 franchises already in operation, you could contribute to this company's expansion. This business requires an affordable initial investment of £40,000. If you plan on getting a loan to cover startup costs, you should anticipate adding a personal investment of 30 to 50% of the total investment as a general rule. The minimal personal investment to start a Promedica24 business is £1,000. These low startup costs make this a good franchising option for first-time franchisees. You could also receive financial assistance, if eligible.

Finally, another option worth considering is SylvianCare. This brand is growing, counting three outlets across the country. To start your own SylvianCare franchise, you will need to invest £62,500, of which at least £30,000 should be your own personal investment. You could get a loan to help cover the remaining startup costs. Given these higher startup costs, this opportunity is less suitable for first-time franchisees. If you can't afford the startup costs on your own, you may qualify for financial aid. See our website for details.
