GreenThumb - Lawn Care Franchise

 

GreenThumb was the very first lawn care company in the UK and began treating lawns along the North Wales coast in 1986.  Now with 25 years experience, it continues to be the trailblazer for lawn treatment across the British Isles. They are the largest and most recommended lawn care company in Europe, with over 200 branches nationwide.

Their aim is to give their customers a service that will delight them. Thousands of homeowners every month adopt this service, many coming from recommendations from their hundreds of thousands of satisfied customers. They know the importance of keeping customers happy and believe that’s why they keep coming back!

Franchising

GreenThumb has established a proven record of successful and ethical franchising since 1997.  All franchisees enjoy the benefits that come from operating a successful and lucrative franchise business. You will have the opportunity to talk to them about their experiences for yourself.

GreenThumb is not complacent about its dominant presence in the industry and continues to innovate and develop improvements in the market.  It was GreenThumb who pioneered the "No Scorch Technology" fertilisers. Today, the Nutragreen® range of lawn treatment feeds highlight GreenThumb’s commitment to continual advancement in providing the world’s best products for their customers.

This is not a ‘man in a van’ lawn care franchise; it is a full management franchise.  We are looking for people who want to run, and are capable of running, a multi vehicle business, servicing 1000’s of customers.

Throughout your tenure as a franchisee you will be supported by experienced, knowledgeable and dedicated staff at Head Office and on location.
