Franchise Focus Time to grow
TruGreen – a business opportunity for all seasons INVESTMENT LEVEL: FROM £24,995
T
ruGreen was founded in 1973 and is part of ServiceMaster, the multi- brand franchisor behind Merry Maids, ServiceMaster Clean and Furniture Medic.
ServiceMaster has over 55 years’ experience in helping entrepreneurs grow successful and award-winning businesses. With spring around the corner, there has never been a better time to invest in rapidly expanding, professional lawn- care franchise TruGreen. Each season offers new opportunities for TruGreen business owners to service their customer bases and spring is the ideal season to win new customers. In 2014, TruGreen introduced fi ve new franchises to its network, providing even greater coverage to the UK. With a full support team behind each franchise business and intensive training with a professional qualifi cation, TruGreen is a great opportunity for all types of investors.
TruGreen’s brand operations manager and former FA groundsman, Steve Welch, is readily available to offer advice and guidance to all franchisees and, as he possesses over 35 years’ experience in groundskeeping and lawn care, TruGreen owners receive the very best support in the industry. A constant source of motivation, enthusiasm and expertise, Steve is hands- on with the TruGreen network, ensuring that each business offers the same professional service across the UK. Steve says: “Spring is the ideal season in which to launch a TruGreen business. Although the nature of the business is year-round, now is the time to be thinking about setting up for the spike in lawn- care searches and enquiries. There are over 24 million gardens in the UK and the business opportunity in the lawn-care market is certainly worth exploring.” TruGreen offers customers a bespoke service, giving every one of them the lawn-care treatment plan they need. The
Andy Hazell
network prides itself on engaging with the customer and, by maintaining a good line of communication, these customers learn to trust the advice they are given. In August 2014, Andy Hazell
purchased TruGreen Hertfordshire as a resale for £100,000. He says: “My decision to purchase a franchise rather than start my own business came from over six months of research into my options. ServiceMaster is one of the oldest franchisors in the UK and TruGreen is a reputable brand with great prospects.” n
