Pet Carers, Derby – £8,000

A not to be missed opportunity, has arisen to purchase a young, growing business (set up in 2009) in Derby and its surrounding area.

The franchise covers a substantial area from Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Castle Donington in the South to Duffield and Milford in the North, of which only a small part is currently being operated (Chellaston, Darley Abbey, Allestree, and Duffield). Consequently, this franchise would suit either a sole owner or a couple working together or could be expanded to support a team of employees.

There is a good mix of dog walking, cat care, and home dog boarding.  The business enjoys a loyal client base, including regulars as well as repeat bookings during holiday times, making this a wonderful opportunity for the right person to build on and continue its growth.

The asking price includes a full handover to the new owners and the cost of training by the Franchisors of Pet Carers based in Cheltenham.  The lease of a fully equipped Citroen Berlingo Van is available by separate negotiation, so that the new owner could be trading within a short while.

The owner has reluctantly decided to sell due to incapacity.
