Jim’s Diggers opens first South Australia franchise

Jims Diggers opens their first South Australian franchise with their youngest partner, Brad Pitts. 

According to Carly Thorntorn, Divisional franchisor of the Jim’s Group, believes Brad Pitts and Jim’s Diggers is a match made in marketing heaven.

"His name is very similar to the Hollywood star, which is certainly attention getting, but the digging reference to the 'pits' is also great. He has no option but to be our poster boy," said Thorntorn.

Pitts, who is only 23 years young, said choosing to buy a Jim’s Digger construction franchise was an easy choice

“"I have worked in the industry since I was 18 and wanted to own my own business and not be an employee all my life,” said Pitts.

“Jims Diggers is a based on a highly regarded and well-known brand. I get to be my own boss yet still have the resources of a whole team backing me every step of the way."

Carly Thornton had recently bought the rights to Jim’s Diggers building equipment franchises, which they will be operating alongside Dial-a-Digger earth moving franchises.

"The Jim's franchise system and brand was the perfect vehicle for us to assist others interested in owning a successful earthmoving and excavation business," said Thornton.

Jim’s Diggers had also launched their first franchisee in Victoria and hopes to eventually offer their franchise opportunities to Australia wide.

"We have a number of others in South Australia and Western Australia who are currently finalising training and equipment selections and we should also have guys in Tasmania and ACT before Christmas," says Thornton.
