FRANCHISEE TESTIMONIALS
“The last five years at Minster have been challenging and hard work, but a lot of fun too! The support offered by Minster has been amazing and they have always been on hand to offer great advice and reassurance.”
“Would I do it again? Absolutely!” - Neil Campbell, Franchise Partner, Staffordshire since 2014
“I have the best of both worlds, I run my own business and yet I am not entirely on my own. Minster’s support covers a wide range of areas including IT, accounting and marketing as well as complex areas like health and safety and employment law – this leaves franchisees free to concentrate on looking after customers and providing a first class service. The franchisee network is also very helpful – there is always someone to speak to and no matter what situation arises, one of the other franchisees can offer useful advice.”
“I wanted success but not at the expense of personal security. With Minster I’ve got both. My annual turnover is £2.3M and I have a huge exclusive territory in Sheffield and surrounding towns.” - James Lofthouse, Franchise Partner, Sheffield since 2005
“To eliminate the risk of failure I was attracted by Minster’s tried and tested business model. Having a large national organisation behind me has given me the confidence to grow my business.” - Jenny Campbell, Franchise Partner, Dorset since 2005
