Business for sale

Business description

This is a fantastic franchise with a company who have experienced a growing demand for their services even during the depth of the recession. Throughout the UK, lawn care is experiencing explosive growth, and there is no better area to exploit this than the extremely affluent triangle between Leeds, Wetherby and Harrogate.

Lawnscience provide their customers with a regular cycle of 5 lawn treatments throughout the year, including winter, which helps to maintain income throughout the year. There is also a range of other complementary services and treatments available to customers.

A new owner would inherit around 100 existing regular customers, who alone should produce
around £15,000-£20,000 turnover per year.

However, with referrals from these satisfied
customers, conversion rates of around 90% for new customers, and an even higher rate of renewals by customers in subsequent years, these figures will escalate rapidly.

Lawnscience figures suggest that by the end of the first year, a new franchisee will have 250-300 customers, each paying around £140-£250 per year. Ultimately a customer base of around 500 is achievable overall, and with the business incurring very few overheads, a very healthy profit can be enjoyed by a working owner.

All the necessary equipment to carry out the work is provided, including a computerised customer database and there is absolutely no limit as to what can be earned from it.

No experience is required to run this business, as training is provided by the franchisor. This has to be a superb opportunity for someone who wants to enjoy huge job satisfaction running a lifestyle business unlike any other.

The territory covers various post codes which roughly form a triangle between North Leeds, Harrogate and Wetherby.

This is a phenomenally good area for this type of operation, as it contains an extremely wealthy population, offering a huge amount of potential to increase turnover to an exceptionally high level.
