Franchise Spotlight: Low Cost

Low-cost franchises offer aspiring franchisees an affordable entry point into the franchise market.

If you have modest savings or need to minimise your financial risk, investing in a low-cost franchise is a great route into business ownership.

Not having enough funds to buy a franchise is a common challenge for many entrepreneurs. Having large amounts of cash available to buy a franchise is not always possible, and getting a loan to buy a franchise isn’t a straightforward process either. That’s why we work with low-cost franchises across the UK, giving you a greater chance of entering the franchise market.

Whether you’re looking for a low-cost cleaning franchise, a low-cost food franchise, or a franchise under £5,000, you’ll find an opportunity that suits your passion, interests, and investment level on BusinessesForSale.com.

These cheap franchises offer affordable entry points for new franchisees, requiring smaller initial investments compared to other higher-end franchises. This not only makes buying a franchise more accessible for those with limited capital, but also gives franchisees the opportunity to start a business without racking up significant debt.

On top of this, you can join incredible brands that offer great returns on investment, reduced financial risk, and a turnkey business solution that can offer you stability and a steady income.

The only difference between a low-cost franchise and a higher-end franchise is the initial investment. A cheap franchise doesn’t mean it’s business model, operations, marketing and customer base are undeveloped. Low-cost franchises still offer extensive support, training, and an established business model and reputation.

The exact cost of low-cost franchise opportunities will vary, but the consensus is that they are affordable for aspiring entrepreneurs who have limited capital to invest. You can even find a franchise under £5,000. It’s possible that some franchisors will even subsidise certain start-up costs, as franchisees will pay their way in the long-term through ongoing royalties.

Examples of low-cost franchises include:

  • Home-based services that require minimal stock, equipment or premises. Cleaning and lawn care are examples of these.
  • Food and beverage franchises that can operate through a mobile van, kiosk or smaller-scale premises.
  • Education and tutoring services that often offer a flexible work-life balance.
  • Senior care services that include companionship, care taking, meal preparation, dog walking or helping out around someone’s home.
  • Online services that don’t require coding or web design skills.

And so much more. While some low-cost franchises might need you to have certain skills, most of them will provide adequate training to set you up for success.

However, it’s important to remember that just because a franchise is cheap, does not mean you won’t need to consider other financial obligations. You’ll still need to pay ongoing royalties, overhead expenses, supplier prices, and maintain a profit. In the same breath, you’ll still need to conduct thorough research and due diligence on the franchise to ensure it’s a good fit for you.

If you decide to invest in a low-cost franchise in the UK, ensure you review its financial performance, talk to existing franchisees, conduct market research and understand wider industry trends and statistics. Even if the investment level is low, you still want to make sure that you’re choosing the right franchise.
