VIP investment pays immediate
dividends
At the end of 2008 VIP Bin Cleaning SA decided to invest heavily
in the company in preparation for the expected substantial
growth within their franchise business. This investment included moving into premises in Northcliff, Johannesburg, more network support staff to help launch and support their existing and new franchisees and improved systems and procedures.
This investment has already paid dividends with the announcement
that six new franchises have been awarded in April 2009 and
all are now in the planning stage to launch their new businesses.
VIP always recognised that the potential for the business in
South Africa is great and this is vindication that the improved
infrastructure will pay high rewards.
“These new offices have already made such a big difference
to the way we are able to work with and support our existing
network
of franchisees. The offices are so well situated that it makes
it so much easier for our franchisees and guests to visit us
as well as us going out and visiting our franchisees and customers.
Mark Harvey (VIP Bin Cleaning UK Managing Director) visited
South Africa in April to meet the new franchisees and help
present the company at the 2009 FASA Franchise Exhibition in
Johannesburg. Mark commented how impressed he was the new VIP
set up and also the high quality of the new franchisees who
all showed great passion, believe and enthusiasm for the business.
