AMERICAN IN-HOME CARE FRANCHISE ANNOUNCES UK EXPANSION PLANS

BrightStar Care, whose franchisees provide medical and non-medical in-home care, is looking to recruit area developers to own and operate 75 locations at a time, as well as master franchisees who can sub-franchise the concept after opening two-five of their own locations.

“The BrightStar Care proven track record of growing franchise businesses that provide expert, compassionate care in the United States, coupled with our solid infrastructure and resources, make us the ideal franchise to be at the forefront of filling demand for in-home care needs in the UK,” Shelly Sun, the company’s CEO and co-founder, says.
SPEARHEADING THE EXPANSION
International franchise development veteran Anthony Padulo, who has previously led international franchising efforts for the likes of Dunkin’ Brands, BP Oil and Aamco, is spearheading the expansion.

The executive vice president, international for BrightStar Care explains: “The ideal candidates to lead development in the UK would be sophisticated operators who have experience in managing their own organisations and who understand the franchisor/franchisee relationship and the training and support process for franchisees.”

BrightStar Care has over 260 franchisees in the United States.
