Mobile patrols: A patrol officer attends a site as often as required on a regular basis.

Key holding: A set of keys are kept in a secure safe and allow an officer to attend in the case of a key holder being required to attend.
Response: An officer attends a site in the case of an alarm or CCTV activation or the premises being breached.
Event security: Officers control access in terms of numbers as well as for screening purposes such as weapon checks.
CCTV installation and maintenance. CCTV monitoring: Our control centre monitors CCTV triggers for threat and if required an officer attends the premises.
In terms of the franchise opportunity, we are
offering a management model predominantly. However, this also works for someone who wants to be hands-on to get the business up and running. Security is a £12billion industry and is growing, so the market holds plenty of opportunity.
"Our head office team has around 50 years’ security experience and 60 years’ sales knowledge"
How soon is a franchisee up and running? We anticipate a franchisee will be producing income within two to three months, and they will be working with our marketing partners to generate enquiries and build a pipeline. Included in their franchise fee is an initial budget for a launch campaign and a further ongoing marketing budget (optional) to keep generating enquiries.
How do you support and train your franchisees? We provide a very comprehensive training schedule including time with our officers to understand the services we provide. We provide a big initial marketing campaign in conjunction with our marketing partners. On an ongoing basis, we provide a full service support, including the back office support needed. We will invoice for our franchisees and even chase debtors for them. Using our experience with our current franchisees we
will provide all the back up and ongoing training needed. Within our head office team we have around 50 years’ security experience as well as around 60 years sales’ knowledge and, of course, significant business management experience. These support personnel are included in the royalty fees.

Who is suited to running a Cava Guard franchise? A Cava Guard franchise provides the vehicle for a franchisee to run their own business and shape their own future ... they will be able to pursue their own growth and, with our help, create a business that will provide significant recurring income. An ideal candidate would be from a security or facilities management company but that is no barrier to succeeding in this expanding market. More important attributes are energy, motivation to succeed, positive engagement with potential clients, commercial awareness, the ability to use social media and digital resources to generate enquiries and the willingness to learn.
What’s the financial lowdown? Our Franchise costs £38,000 + vat and we anticipate another £12,000 working capital. The initial fee can be funded by several banks including several high- street banks/lenders.
