DUBLCHECK
Buying a cleaning franchise previously owned by someone else
is one way to achieve good returns and, importantly, a better
work/life balance - and new Dublcheck areas come up for sale on
a regular basis.
Founded in 1993 by Carol Stewart-Gill, Dublcheck has been providing
premier cleaning services for offices, showrooms and health facilities
throughout the UK for over 20 years.
The company operates a guaranteed turnover scheme and provides
supports to ensure every venture becomes a lucrative enterprise. You
can earn as little or as much as you want as there’s no upper limit on the
number of contracts you can operate.
One franchisee said: “The key with Dublcheck is to realise how much they give. Dublcheck do all the
invoicing and paperwork, so for them to take such a time consuming part of the business away from me
is hugely valuable.
“We like the support the company offers too. There’s always someone at the end of the phone who can
find an answer to anything I need to know.”
Franchisee Damon Dieches says: “Starting from zero six years ago and building a business that now
employs 75 people and turns over just under £400,000 has been an amazing experience.
“This is only possible with the superb support from everyone at HQ, who have been with me every
step of the way. Next stop £1 million.”

income from day one. Finance is
available for either option, with banks
supportive of the franchise.MINSTER CLEANING SERVICES
If you’re frustrated by working hard for someone else’s
benefit, but worried about the risks associated with
starting your own business without dedicated support,
a Minster management franchise is well worth
considering.
Minster Cleaning Services has been cleaning office and
commercial premises since 1982. The business takes care
of thousands of organisations throughout the UK operating
in varied sectors. With a network of more than 40 branches,
group turnover is over £36 million, with many Minster
branches achieving sales in excess of £1 million.
Mike Parker, managing director of Minster Services
Group, says: “A Minster management franchise offers a
low risk opportunity with a guaranteed geographic area
and exceptional support within the recession resistant and
growing commercial cleaning sector.
“Managing a successful Minster branch requires a can
do attitude to customer service and a tenacious approach to
attaining results. As branches employ large teams, franchise
partners require key resource management skills.
“We have a strong network and our franchisees are
excellent people managers, which is key to a management
franchise.”
Opportunities often arise where existing franchisees wish
to sell their branches, often to facilitate their retirement, and
there are a number of new territories still available.WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
