Vodafone UK opens a further 12 franchise stores

Published: 16 November 2018

Vodafone UK

Vodafone UK has added another 12 stores to its franchise network, bringing its total to 66 nationwide.

The franchise opportunity, otherwise known as Vodafone’s partner agent programme, was launched in August 2017. The following stores are now part of the partner agent programme: Aberdeen Bon Accord, Ashford, Basildon, Bishop Auckland, Boston, Burnley, Durham, Great Yarmouth, Luton, Northampton, Nuneaton, and Workington.

Jon Shaw, Vodafone UK’s head of retail, says: “We are going from strength to strength with our partner agent programme and I am absolutely delighted that we are opening a further 12 stores. Many of these openings are existing partner agents who, after seeing the success of their first franchise store, have decided to take on their second or even third store.”
