Business description
Kitchen & Bedroom Transformations franchise for sale with exclusive rights to the highly lucrative Richmond & Twickenham area.

Kitchen & Bedroom Transformation franchiseees are currently experienced high demand from customers who want to "improve" their homes rather than "move" and who want to save up to 70% off the cost of a new kitchen by transforming their existing kitchen - keeping their existing cabinets but fitting new doors, worktops and appliances as required. One franchise sold £85,000 of new business in October 08 alone.

The business has a steady flow of customer leads from Yellow Pages, local newspaper adverts, the company web site (www.kabt.co.uk), passing trade and a steady flow of referral work from satisfied customers. The franchisee has recently generated many new leads by exhibiting at a recent Kitchen & Bathroom show in Surrey. All of this will mean the new owner will have the benefit of plenty of existing customer leads and can start making profitable sales immediately.

The selling price includes the grant of a new franchise agreement and full franchise package worth £18,950+ VAT which includes: all the showroom and portable samples, specialist tools, a professional CAD kitchen and bedroom design package (worth £2,500), shop signs, Sage accounting software package and online customer management software.
