ETHICAL FRANCHISING. A Riverford home delivery franchise is a business with a difference. Four times winner of the prestigious Soil Association / You Magazine Organic Food Awards and Brand Builder of the year 2003, Riverford Organic Vegetables is the first organic food franchise in the UK. Through our box scheme, delivered and serviced by a network of franchisees, we supply customers with fresh produce directly from our farm. We offer a full launch package – comprehensive training, quality marketing materials, telesales support, bespoke software and real ongoing hands on support.
A Riverford franchise is an easy to run business. There is no need for premises or stock holding and we arrange all the distribution into chilled hubs. To get this business off the ground all you need is a van and a fully equipped home office. Do you want to run an ethically based business and sell products that you can really believe in? Then we want to talk to you. We are actively seeking franchisees in the North West and West Midlands. We also have a number of resale opportunities.
