Description

Franchise Resales is a unique UK service that provides the opportunity for franchisees and franchisors complete successful resales of their businesses. Franchise Resales has been established by the founding business partners Iain Martin and Derrick Simpson to address the growing demand for clarity and simplicity in the process of selling existing franchised businesses. It has long been a topic of debate amongst British Franchise Association members, and non members, about the most efficient and effective way to expedite the smooth exit of their franchisees from the various franchised systems. Many involved have expressed their view but very few franchisors have ever grasped the nettle and put in place the necessary investment and structure to provide this vital service for their franchisees. The operating system used by Franchise Resales Limited is designed to remove the main reasons that resales often fail during negotiations thereby providing a comprhensive, secure and effective solution to the hassle of reselling a franchised business. The system is based on the tried and tested processes used over many years by the founders, refined and extended to become the definitive resales process in the UK. The company is also supported by affiliated suppliers, business valuation services, solicitors and business brokers. Many consultant firms, banks and solicitors can and do offer individual parts of the resales process and various websites provide an advertising platform but within the UK there is no one that offers the entire "end to end" service for both sellers and buyers provided by Franchise Resales.
