Trophy Pet Foods

Trophy Pet Foods; an investment for the future

18th February 2009

After being made redundant from her position as Company Secretary, Joanne Smethurst decided to take matters into her own hands, and set about joining a leading UK fanchise.

"Having worked in the family business for over 15 years, working for myself was in my blood and franchising allowed me to set up a business without having to start from scratch. It also has the benefit of a tried and tested formula with the support and experience of a larger company behind you. As franchise businesses have a much lower failure rate than a completely new business and with so many new business failing within a few years of setting up, a franchise seemed like a safer bet".

"My redundancy money could have been blown on a fancy holiday or new car (memories that soon fade or lose value) but by choosing franchising I was making an investment in my own future and happiness".

"Having looked at many different franchises, I knew the most important factor was finding something that I would enjoy. I love animals and enjoying meeting different people and their pets, so a Pet Franchise was the one for me. All I then had to do was choose which one. Trophy Pet Foods became the clear winner. A British company (family run) making a quality pet food. I could never sell something I did not believe in. From the outset, everything I was given from the introduction pack on the company to the franchise agreement was clear and precise. Nothing was hidden. The size of territory is large enough, ready for expansion. I do not have to hit targets before being given the opportunity to buy the next area. Trophy Pet Foods is a forward thinking company, always looking at new products and ideas that will keep our business fresh and exciting. The professionalism and support given from Head Office is excellent, but more importantly it is done in a friendly manner".

"You are working for yourself but having the support of Head Office behind you is very reassuring and this support is ongoing. Finally the cost was an important factor. Everything included in the Franchise fee you got, even down to graph paper, there were no hidden extra’s".
