Check out these three business examples
There are many interesting franchising possibilities in the Retail industry. Take Signorini TARTUFI for example. The brand is expanding, with 31 locations currently in operation, and a desire to expand further. A total of £90,000, a substantial initial investment, is required to start a Signorini TARTUFI franchise. You might want to consider getting a loan to cover the startup costs, in which case at least £30,000 of the total investment should come from your personal funds. Given these higher startup costs, this opportunity is less suitable for first-time franchisees.
Tubz Vending is an interesting franchise option in the Retail industry. The brand operates in 300 franchise locations which make up a strong business network. Initially, you would need to invest £3,295 to get your own Tubz Vending business up and running. Given these low startup costs, this opportunity is suitable for both first-time investors and established franchisees. You will also need to invest in a small premises to operate this business. If eligible, you might be entitled to financial assistance.
Finally, have a look at Ecigwizard, another interesting Retail franchise that launched in 2011. This brand is developing quickly, counting 45 outlets across the country. In order to open an Ecigwizard business, an initial investment of £60,000 is required. If you plan on getting a loan to cover the startup costs, you will usually need to cover 30 to 50% of the total investment yourself. Ecigwizard asks for a personal investment of at least £40,000. Due to the higher startup costs, this option is not recommended for first-time franchisees. If you can't cover the startup costs on your own, you could see if you qualify for financial aid. See eligibility details on our website.
