Equipment, materials and suppliers: With first- hand experience in this highly competitive industry, Prokil knows it's important to have the latest technology, materials
and equipment to hand when tackling any surveying or restoration work and to stay at the cutting edge of the market. In order to guarantee a
thorough and accurate survey every time, surveyors only use equipment provided by approved, market-leading manufacturers who Prokil have worked alongside for years. Prokil currently sources all its supplies from leaders in the market including Travis Perkins, Sovereign Chemicals, Pam Ties and many more, having built connections with suppliers who can provide the highest-quality material, ensuring a fantastic standard across all regions. Furthermore, good supplier
relationships mean that Prokil is able to negotiate the best possible rates, which would otherwise be unattainable.
Exclusive Prokil territories and mapping: Prokil franchisees are responsible for servicing the needs of all the potential customers in their exclusive territory, which includes both residential and commercial premises. The Prokil franchise territories
have been professionally developed using a specialist mapping company so that every franchisee has the same opportunity. Every franchisee will have access to an average of 159,828 households.
The Prokil Investment Management service fee (MSF): Prokil charges an MSF of 7 per cent of your gross turnover. Part of the MSF covers the cost of supporting you and further developing the network, and a proportion is a royalty fee to use the Prokil Brand.
Financial support: High-street banks are willing to support Prokil franchisees with 50 to 70 per cent funding subject to approval. This means that you may be able to start a Prokil franchise with just £30,000 personal contribution.
The Figures: The Prokil franchise fee is £40,400, with additional working capital required. The full investment comes to around £54,000, subject to your own individual business plan, circumstances and access to finance.
