Run a Franchise
BiG can provide a range of support to help you set up a franchised* business.
As a Franchisee, you can benefit from assistance with training, merchandising, marketing and management. The brand and logo may also be well established and known to customers - making your chance of success higher.
Franchising offers as many options as setting up on your own and is available for many types of businesses.
Why choose to become a Franchisee?
Becoming a franchisee gives you the freedom of being an independent businessperson. It allows you to build security for yourself by owning your own business with reduced risk.
The benefits…
- Potentially less risk than setting up a standard alone business
- Banks favour franchising over setting up stand alone new businesses
- Banks will often lend more money to a prospective franchisee
- You can tap into an already established market place – the product or service could have been bought or used successfully elsewhere
- Brand already in place
If you are interested in running a franchise BiG can help you with:
- Business planning assistance
- Financial advice
- Assessing the viability of franchising opportunities
- Making contact with franchisors

*Franchising involves purchasing a business agreement with the Franchisor (the owner of a business) that gives you the right to market and distribute the Franchisor’s goods or services, and use the business name for an agreed time period.
