GroutPro cleaning and trade franchises take on Australia
Having launched into franchising just over 12 months ago, GroutPro has quickly expanded to include 35 cleaning and trade franchises across New Zealand, and now the company is turning its attention to Australia.
Building on the success they experienced in New Zealand, GroutPro founders Rob Howard and Joe Hesmondhalgh decided to invest in expanding the brand over the Tasman to Australia, recently exhibiting at the Melbourne Franchise and Business Opportunity Expo.
“Plenty of Australia franchises come across to New Zealand, so [we thought] why not take GroutPro to Aussie and reverse the flow” says Joe.
Response to their proposed cleaning and trade franchises was impressive, the pair says. Initially just looking for state-wide master franchisees to partner with, they were encouraged by strong interest in several states.
With only four GroutPro master franchise opportunities available, Rob says that the company has “even presold two individual territory franchises in Canberra (ACT) and received good enquiries from Melbourne and greater Victoria.”
The Melbourne Franchise Expo was the perfect platform to launch the cleaning and trade franchises, Joe feels, with the company encountering an unexpected level of attention.
“We couldn’t believe the interest from the general public who kept asking where they could get the tile and grout services from – even though there are no operational franchises in the city yet,” he says.
“This just proves the huge demand for our services that will make the GroutPro individual and master franchises such a success.”
More information on both master franchise opportunities and individual territory cleaning franchises across the country can be found online.
