Mac Tools is a full member of the British Franchise Association and part of The Stanley Works, a $4+ billion global organisation employing over 15,000 people worldwide and owner of the world famous Stanley brand.
If you have the desire and passion to work for yourself, available cash of £15,000 and the ability to build relationships, you can be a part of this exciting story.
Your investment and rewards
As a Mac Tools franchisee - as with any franchise - your success depends on the investment you are prepared and able to make. That investment will be both personal (time and effort) and financial.
The total franchise package costs £50,000 excluding VAT (VAT is reclaimable). Unlike many other franchises, the bulk of this cost is starter stock that you will sell on at a profit, and includes everything you need to get started.
Opportunities
• Existing Mac Tools franchisees are typically earning gross profits ranging from £50,000 to £75,000 from one territory.
• There is no charge from Mac Tools for ongoing royalties so you keep 100% of your profit.
• You are free to build the goodwill asset value of your territory and sell it on as a going concern to an existing or new Mac Tools franchisee.
Your life as a Mac Tools franchise owner
You'll be self-employed and based at your own home.
Mac Tools provides you with a professionally equipped van. This will be stocked with a wide and wordclass range of products.
You will be allocated a territory, with a database of all the known automotive relevant outlets within it, which will give you a minimum of 300 potential customers from the day you start. You will sell directly to customers by calling into their workshops on a regular and reliable basis.
