Buy A Petfood Business

As it celebrates 25 years in the franchise industry, there’s never been a better time to invest in a trophy pet foods business

The Trophy Pet Foods franchise celebrates 25 years of franchising in 2015. New franchisees are joining Trophy Pet Foods all over the country and current franchisees are expanding their businesses rapidly.

2014 has seen the Trophy network expand, with 12 new areas now being covered, as well as product enhancements, new services and new marketing materials and promotions for all Trophy Pet Foods franchisees. This is good news for the franchise network, as it means greater exposure and brand awareness.

Now with a big birthday to celebrate and all the exposure and new sales this will bring, 2015 has never been a better time to join Trophy Pet Foods.

### Reduced franchisee fee ###

To mark the occasion, Trophy Pet Foods is offering all new franchisees who join the network in 2015 a reduced franchise fee. New customer demand is at an all-time high, with almost 25 per cent of enquiries coming through the Trophy head office-based online, social media and marketing campaigns. And that means more franchisees are needed to sell the range of Trophy pet foods, treats, accessories and pet care items in areas not yet covered by the company.

For 25 years Trophy Pet Foods has been creating irresistible pet food to make the pets of Britain happy and healthy.

Sue Reid, franchise director at Trophy Pet Foods, says: “We offer British-made, nutritionally balanced pet food with premium ingredients and many key benefits for all types of pet.

“Manufacturing our own foods at our own pet food plant allows our franchisees to have confidence in what is a quality British product that will ensure customer satisfaction and retention. We know that local Trophy nutritional advisers and franchisees are the best people to give friendly, expert nutritional advice. Whether the pet is overweight, young, mature, healthy, has an allergy or food intolerances, Trophy are here to help.

“Every Trophy pet and their owner have a Trophy nutritional adviser to assist them in getting the right Trophy pet food. Our foods are affordable and very competitively priced.”

‘Convenience, quality, British’ is what defines Trophy Pet Foods. In addition to the British-made foods, franchisees also offer a free home delivery service, a try-before-you-buy free sample service, competitive pricing, free nutritional advice (backed up by the Trophy experts) and friendly customer care. In addition, services such as free dog weighing and pet insurance combine to provide a winning combination.

### Effective launch programme ###

Sue adds: “You’re never alone when you form a partnership with Trophy Pet Foods, starting with a smooth and effective launch programme. We are with you every step of the way - after all, your success is our success.

“One of the many benefits of running your own business in conjunction with Trophy is the level of support we can provide for you. Ongoing support is crucial and Trophy franchisees benefit from excellent communications, product development, free promotional literature, local and national advertising, help with growing the customer base, seminars, a franchisee council, motivational support and your own franchise support manager.

“Seasonal newsletters for all your customers, brand building programmes, the main Trophy website, social media campaigns, an annual conference, a customer referral scheme and show/ event support are also part of the franchise package.

“Over two decades, the Trophy head office team have developed and perfected an excellent launch programme followed by some of the best support around. This product knowledge, nutritional advice and proven sales techniques are exactly what are needed to develop a large customer base. Everything is tailored towards this goal, allowing the franchisee to become profitable as soon as possible.”
