We can't afford to sponsor England but second best was the local Anstey football team
We at TruGreen believe in targeting our franchisees at a young age, hence the picture.
TruGreen has been operating in America since 1974 and is part of ServiceMaster, a Fortune 500 company. TruGreen is the largest and most respected lawn care operation in America and we now know the time was right to bring the franchise across to the UK and offer the opportunity to new franchisees.
The franchise suits someone, who enjoys the outdoors, is prepared to work on his or her own initially, or with a spouse, son or daughter and then develop their area to a multi van operation in the coming years, we are hoping for each franchisee to employ five to ten operators, running a million pound plus business.
There are over 20,000,000 gardens in the UK and of course with the popularity of gardening programmes and the trend to extend home life into the garden this surely must be a twenty first-century winner. A recent article in the Express shows that people in the UK are spending a million pound a day on their gardens.
This year round business will allow TruGreen professionals will provide fertilisation, Weed & Moss control, Aeration, Scarification, Insect & disease control services to lawns, hard surface areas and gardens. As franchisees develop their businesses they will no doubt extend their capacity to larger commercial areas.
TruGreens plan is to obtain a critical mass of franchisees across the UK before launching a programme of national accounts for large commercial contracts. Unlike many of our competitors the franchise licence includes commercial work, hopefully doubling the turnover eventually of franchisees.
This year round business is very much at the beginning of the curve as far as new concepts is concerned, with little competition and projected large demand there cannot be a better time to start this type of business. If self-employment is your goal, if being your own boss is your dream. If early retirement is what you hope to achieve perhaps you had better respond to TruGreen
