What Makes Our Business Model So Rewarding?
Our franchise is more than just a business – it’s a way to make a meaningful impact. Selling and delivering fresh fruit, vegetables, and other produce helps improve the wellbeing of people in your community – at home, at work, and at your local markets. You’ll also be giving back by supporting your local hospice with every sale.
We’re committed to sustainability, ensuring our produce boxes are as plastic-free as possible – no unnecessary wrapping like in supermarkets! Plus, with a mix of subscriptions and cash sales, you’ll create a secure, repeating monthly income. Our intuitive app stack streamlines everything from customer orders and route planning to reporting and bookkeeping, so you can focus on what matters most – connecting with people.
Happy customers refer friends, family, and colleagues, making this a self-growing business where success is built on community support.
What Makes Our Franchise Stand Out?
- It’s all about people – build real relationships and connections.
- Serving with warmth and humor – a friendly approach makes all the difference.
- Spreading health and good vibes – be a positive force in your community.
- Being valued by your community – your service will truly be appreciated.
- Giving to your local hospice – every sale helps make a difference.
Why Invest in Our Franchise?
- A Proven, Feel-Good Business Model – earn while making a positive impact.
- Recurring Revenue Streams – subscription-based sales for financial stability.
- Low Overheads & Minimal Waste – a simple, cost-effective setup.
- Comprehensive Training & Support – full guidance to help you thrive.
- A Business with Purpose – contribute to your local hospice and community.
What Sets Us Apart?
- A people-first approach – build relationships, not just transactions.
- A fun, rewarding environment – enjoy every interaction with customers.
- A commitment to sustainability – less plastic, less waste, more impact.
- A charitable mission – help your local hospice with every purchase.

Hear From Our Franchisees
“All the produce is great quality and well-priced, which customers love – combined with a bit of friendly banter of course! A local person serving with a smile and making time for a chat goes a really long way these days – people aren’t used to it. The business grows because people want it to.” – Richard, Franchisee in Manchester
“I’ve just started and it is such a joy working with the team, chatting to others in the network. The marketing works and it’s super rewarding – if you are thinking about it, stop thinking and just do it…” – Demi, Franchisee in Northamptonshire
“While its hard work, I’ve had so much fun, it’s so fulfilling. I’m now at the stage of growing my business, getting some more employees and some more vehicles on the road – I’m going big…” – Andrew, Franchisee in South Buckinghamshire
