Countrywide Grounds Maintenance is the UK’s market leader in commercial grounds maintenance. Founded in 1984, it now has 456 franchised locations across the country, supporting more than 10,000 sites with an annual turnover in excess of £450million.
This is a very rare opportunity to join the industry’s leading grounds maintenance brand. With no vacant territories available, the only way you can own a Countrywide Grounds Maintenance franchise is through a resale. And there are only a couple on the market right now, including this exciting resale in Cumbria.
If you’ve been looking for a high earning business that has seen substantial growth over the last few years, then you’re in the right place. What’s more, there is huge scope to expand and grow further still.
One of the great advantages of taking over a franchise like this is that you’ll benefit from regular and recurring contracts straight away. Some of which are exclusive national contracts with recognised brands Importantly, that means your income stream is immediate and there’s a very fast return on your investment.
Customers are typically secured on a pay-per-month basis too, so your business enjoys the certainty of regular contracted monthly payments. Of course, you will also provide plenty of ‘extras’ and one-off works that you can fit between those regular site visits.
Countrywide Grounds Maintenance provides services that are crucial to businesses, schools, hospital and all manner of commercial sites. It’s a futureproofed and stable business too; for while the grass keeps growing, there is always work to complete and at high contract values.
Countrywide Grounds Maintenance is part of Neighbourly, the world’s largest parent company of homes services brands. With over 65,000 franchisees globally and network revenues in excess of $4.2billion, you’ll benefit from infrastructure, support and exposure beyond the means of independent businesses. You’ll immediately tap into over 30 years of franchising experience and gain access to one of the most comprehensive support packages in the UK.
As a Countrywide franchise owner, you won’t be conducting the grounds work yourself. You’ll need good management skills and, with ambition, could scale this quickly into a million-pound business.
