The consulting team has a combined 20 year history in formulating distribution strategy and structuring owner-operator mechanisms across a wide array of industries. Our methodology is facilitative, whereby clients enlighten us about their markets and business, and combined with our specialised knowledge and experience, we formulate the strategy, structures, plans and documentation required.

Clients and their needs vary but are commonly focused on expansion and/or restructuring, including:
  • Business expanding using franchising or other owner-operator mechanisms
  • Existing franchisors requiring independent and objective advice
  • Multi-unit operators restructuring ownership of their distribution channels

Whilst many parties approach us to assist with the franchising of their business, we often identify that alternative strategies and/or owner-operator mechanisms are more appropriate for the business.
