Considering a Care, Retail or Home Services franchise?
Take a look at the proven Ableworld business model…
Mobility Management Franchise
Superstore | Home Fitting | Servicing
Growing market, growing demand
Our aging population need mobility support, from small regular purchases through to larger items including frames, scooters and stairlifts. It’s a vast and growing sector with Ableworld the clear market leader.
Fewer employees, fewer headaches!
Start with a team of 3 and build up to 8-10 loyal employees. Ableworld benefits from the same market as the many care franchises, but doesn’t need 100+ employees per territory, or suffer from shortages and high staff turnover.
Choose your role
Love chatting to customers? Employ an operations manager. Prefer being hands-on? Employ a store manager and handle the operations. Many franchisees create family businesses with partners, siblings and children.
Successful franchisees come from a wide range of backgrounds
You don’t need any prior experience in the sector - successful Ableworld franchisees have come from a diverse range of backgrounds – and share a desire to build their own business helping people in their local area, while making a healthy living and growing an asset to sell in the future.
I was a former Science Teacher
“The Ableworld franchise appealed to us because it would help people who were finding life hard. Friends had told us how difficult it was to get hold of suitable equipment to help their parents.”
Gerald Roper, Colchester
I was a former
Engineer
“We chose Ableworld from several other options because we very much admired their ethics and the value, they place on customer care.”
Stuart & Jackie Simpson, Paisley
I was a former Sales Advisor
“I liked the idea of the franchise model as you have the backup of the larger company behind you to help you grow your business. I felt that customers were at ease when they think they are dealing with a larger more established company.”
James Studdart, Bridgend, Cardiff & Newport
A Rewarding Management Franchise
Run your own mobility superstore, service centre, and home fitting business with the market-leading Ableworld brand, systems, and support. The headline numbers:
- Build a £1M+ sales per territory with healthy margins
- Superstore and service centre with van(s) for home fitting service
- Employ a small team
- Option to open multiple stores across multiple territories
- Build a valuable asset to sell in the future
(Note: financials are proven potential – not a guarantee of future success)
This is a very rewarding business to be in – it’s all about relationships – people will come to you with a need, often with a real fear for their future freedom. You and your team will empower them to be able continue life at home in their familiar surroundings creating loyal lifelong customers.
Assessment-based sales of tangible mobility products from small to large purchases – regular repeat custom enabling lifelong relationships
Mobility equipment needs maintenance and servicing, providing a recurring income and loyal customers for life.
A lucrative income stream: your engineers install and setup customers’ stairlifts, from temporary rentals to permanent installations.
We are unique as established franchisors having our network of successful superstores and associated mobile engineers. This enables our loyal head office team to continually test and improve the Ableworld offering in our stores, before rolling out proven refinements to franchisees.
This means our head office team is empathetic with their support for you as a franchisee, providing guidance based on real-life experience at every stage of your business journey. This isn’t common, many franchisors employ managers to deliver theory without the depth of experience.
An example of the depth of our support is offering an interim manager to enable franchisees to take a proper holiday when establishing their business in the early years. We don’t know of any other franchisors offering this without charging extra!
