How are the territories decided?
Apollo Care Franchise Owners secure the rights to operate the Apollo Care service in an exclusive territory.
These rights and responsibilities are drawn up in the franchise agreement. This legal agreement clearly sets out the roles of both of both Franchisor and Franchise Owner.
You will likely be eager to learn how we calve up our franchise territories. When we assign territories we do so with reference to:
- Post Codes/Local Authority Boundaries
- Population Size
What does this mean for me?
Typically assigned territories consist of approximately 160,000 people. This ensures your business has enough potential clientele to flourish. This figure may vary depending on where in the Country you operate in.
Territory sizes are chosen fairly to allow comparison between franchise units.
Which areas are available?
All areas in the UK are potentially available, with the exception of those taken by our existing Franchise Owners, shown in red pins on the map. Several other areas are in discussion, so do contact us for more details on the area you are interested in.
How can I know I’ve chosen the correct area?
To answer this question requires much thought on your behalf. Before you chose an area we suggest you undertake basic demographic research to ensure you are making a sensible business decision.
And of course hard figures are only one half of the equation. You should also consider factors such as:
Knowledge
Your knowledge of the area
Connections
Your ties and links with the area.
Market
Your knowledge of the care market where you propose to undertake your business.
Demand
The demand for care services in your potential area
Competition
The other home care providers in your chosen area
Local Authority
Plans on behalf of the local authorities.
