A new franchise resales website has been launched by The Franchise Company.
The site has been devised and constructed to help franchisees sell their businesses in a cost-effective manner where the asking price is likely to be under £25,000. It’s been built around the understanding that a franchise resale will probably appeal to a local purchaser. To that end, people searching the site will be able to find resale opportunities in their area. Alternatively ‘searches’ can be classified by industry sector and price band.
To launch Franchise-Resale.co.uk Ken Rostron, a partner at The Franchise Company, is offering three months’ advertising on the site for free.
Says Rostron: “The new website is an exciting project for us. We’ve been helping franchisors over many years with establishing their brands and recruitment. The resale side of the franchise business has historically been more difficult to support at the lower entry levels because of the time and cost previously needed for a franchise resale. However, the new website will take care of that by putting the franchisee in control of their sale.
“The new site offers terrific value to franchisees looking to move on and we’re equally certain that franchisors will recommend the site, as it is the first of its kind to allow both buyer and seller direct initial contact. The site has a clean, fresh look and is easy to navigate around. Once populated we have our SEO experts on hand to ensure a very high visibility on all the search engines.”
