Healthy growth for lawn care franchise

Lawnkeeper, one of the UK's longest established lawn care providers, is now offering franchise territories across the UK

Lawnkeeper is currently in its first year and increasing demand for its high quality services has led to the creation of new opportunities for franchisees.

Offering a professional lawn care service for domestic and commercial customers, managing director Sam Langrick says the business has been built around the highest levels of customer service - a major factor in Lawnkeeper’s success.

Customer retention

Customer service is vitally important in the lawn care sector, and it is an area in which Lawnkeeper excels. It is one of the main reasons why it enjoys such high levels of customer retention and why sales increased by 30 percent last year.

Says Sam: “Originally a private company, we only recently entered the franchise market with a small number of pilot territories. The franchise pilots have performed extremely well and Lawnkeeper is now in a strong position to provide territories delivering excellent business potential across the country.

“We have invested a substantial amount of time in designing our territories using sophisticated mapping to give each franchisee the best possible growth potential with an average of 100,000 households in each area.

“Our intention is to make our franchises appealing to people looking for a change in lifestyle, where they can earn a good living and still have plenty of leisure time. A Lawnkeeper franchise can also provide opportunities for those investors seeking to develop large multi-van operations.”
