The Opportunity
How often do you find a franchise for sale that will let you make money from day one and comes with a portfolio of 165 loyal customers who’ll keep ordering from you repeatedly?
That’s what awaits the buyer of Card Connection Stirling, a distributor of constantly updated greeting cards, gift bags, and party paraphernalia to convenience stores and filling-station outlets in a swathe of Scotland that includes a significant slice of the capital, Edinburgh, as well as Dundee, Dunfermline, Perth, and St Andrews, the home of golf.
Operating from your own home with a branded van and assistant of your choice, you’ll merchandise those outlets, fine-tuning the stock and the way it’s displayed, while always on the lookout for additional outlets that will be the key to growing the business.
Run as a company-owned operation since the last franchisee retired through ill-health, the franchise has had no expense or effort spared in making it the slick and profitable operation the new owner will benefit from.
And support from the head office of a network that sells 300 million cards a year includes a personal introduction to every single one of the customers you’ll be inheriting.
If you have the ambition and the energy, this franchise will amply repay your efforts.
The Franchise
Card Connection had a great idea 30 years ago and has been improving on it ever since, so you’ll be able to hit the ground running on day one with an established reputation to trade on plus an ever-changing line of products that has turned the company into the market leader in its sector.
Part of UK Greetings Ltd, owned by American Greetings Inc, Card Connection comes with a huge amount of experience and expertise behind it from which you, as the new owner, will have all the benefit.
You can base yourself wherever you like within the vast territory and either maintain it as the thriving concern it is or, if you put in the effort, expand it so you eventually employ an additional team with a van to potentially double your turnover.
Summary
This is not just a lucrative business in a box, because the vendors will take you around and introduce you personally to every one of the 165 retail outlets that love to keep reordering your products year after year, ensuring a predictable income stream that comes on tap from day one. By looking after those clients and listening to the needs of their customers, you’ll be able to increase profits while signing up other outlets to truly grow the business to where it deserves to be.
