Hearing care includes free hearing tests, prescription hearing aids, ear wax removal and hearing advice. Our services have been the major choice in the market as we employ only the best eye and ear professionals in the country.
Why Join Us
With nearly 90 years in the industry, Leightons has invested a lot into becoming one of the leading eye and ear care providers. While we take great efforts in hiring only the best professionals, we also take into consideration business innovation which made us stronger through the years. Our efforts have not been for nothing as major organisations have noticed and recognised us as one of the top performers in the sector. For many years, we have been a full member of the British Franchise Association. This means that we work not only with exceptional standards but we also have the backing of major business franchise organisations. Moreover, this means that we are equipped with the right tools and knowledge to continue with our business success with ease.
Training and support provided
Leightons will never leave a partner behind as we treat every business partner as part of our family. This family business will offer only competitive salary, bonuses on profits, low entry cost and a Directorship position on Board. But before this, new partners shall undergo extensive and comprehensive training programme encompassing matters such as sales, employee techniques, sales, marketing as well as business operations. We will also help advertise the local branch in the area by using print, media and on our website.
The ideal Leightons franchisee
As we are known in the industry as the top choice for tried and tested business franchise, we are still on the lookout for prospective franchise partners who want to share with our successes. Currently, we are open for three business opportunities—a franchise, a joint venture and a shared ownership. All three will give the partner the right to use the brand name as well all our products and equipment. Collectively, this is called the Leighton Method which is a way to ensure that our future partner only venture on a business opportunity that best suits their capabilities as entrepreneurs. Because of this, initial investment costs may vary all depending on the type of business and the overall characteristics of the prospective partner.
Leightons' history
In 1928, H.O. Leighton established the Leightons Opticians and Hearing Care with head office in Farnham, Surrey, UK. As a family owned business, management passed from one generation to another. But innovative business strategies carefully executed kept us alive and which made us survive all these years of business ups and downs. In 1997, we opened for franchise and has grown exponentially ever since. Today, we have more than 34 branches in south east England and London. ;
