Profile
Caremark is proud to be a wholly UK owned and operated home care franchise which has an established and successful UK based network.
Franchise owners come from a variety of backgrounds, some with extensive business experience and others with none at all. Whatever your level of knowledge, we will work in partnership to give you the skills you require.
Caremark is a full member of the British Franchise Association.
The demand for quality home care in the UK and internationally is constantly on the rise due to the ageing population. Since 2005 Caremark has built up a reputation for excellence and the company has remained one of the leading UK and international providers of home care services.
Our proven home care business formula works because it provides people with the option to receive excellent care at home in a form tailored to the needs of the individual. Specialised home care from qualified and experienced carers also helps alleviate pressure on limited NHS resources.
Most importantly, your clients will benefit from being looked after in the comfort and security of their own homes. The care and support they receive can help them to enjoy a fuller, happier life.
The Caremark franchise fee is £29,750 + VAT, plus working capital with a minimum personal investment of £30,000. Caremark has a strong relationship with all major banks, who will offer up to 70% of your first year’s running costs upon approval.
You will get tremendous value in return for your initial Caremark franchise investment. This includes essential training, on-going advice and support and also a whole package of start-up assets. Most importantly, the initial package you receive will include your licence to use the Caremark brand, which carries with it instant credibility as a highly respected care service provider.
Five reasons why buying a Caremark franchise could be the right choice for you:
- Our team provides support to our over 100+ offices at a 3:1 ratio
- We have the lowest management fees in the sector
- Award winning training of the proven Caremark formula and systems
- Only 40% of our territories are still available
- Great opportunities from multiple income streams
At Caremark we want to make it as easy as possible for our new franchisees to set up their business and start earning money. This is why we have developed a step-by-step process that each new franchise owner completes to ensure they are fully prepared to run their own business.
