SINGLE FRANCHISE
This is a franchise for a distinct geographical area. The price of the franchise is determined by the population within the geographical area as well as the economic factors and automotive service opportunities. The smallest franchise territory offered is 250,000 people but most franchise buyers prefer to own territories consisting of at least 1 million people. Single franchise owners may choose between offering mobile repair utilizing our mobile reconditioning facility (MRF) or operating from a fixed-base facility. Due to language and travel restrictions, this franchise option may not be available in some countries until we have a Master Franchisee in place.
CO-BRAND
Our co-brand offering is designed for those who are already operating an automotive type of business and want to add wheel repair as a new service. This is particularly attractive to owners of automobile dealerships, collision shops, tire stores, car wash and detail centers, or general automotive repair garages. The price for this franchise would vary based upon the number of locations owned, population and other economic factors. We anticipate that most co-branded franchises would operate as a fixed-base location rather than as a mobile operation.
AREA DEVELOPMENT
The area development option allows a franchise owner of large geographical areas to open multiple markets using their own mobile reconditioning facilities or fixed-based facilities. The area developer purchases the rights to a large territory and determines the best method for marketing our services themselves. Although this is a more expensive option because of repair facility and royalty costs, there is tremendous potential for a much greater profit margin. The price of an area development franchise is determined by population and economic factors.
MASTER FRANCHISE
Master franchisees purchase a large geographic area, typically an entire country or portion thereof. Once purchased, the master franchisee has the option of selling sub-franchises and collecting a royalty commission on revenue generated by the sub-franchisee (single franchise) which is split with AWRS Corporate. The master franchisee is responsible for all facets of the business, including recruitment of sub-franchises, training, marketing and on-going field support. This option requires a substantial upfront investment but offers a residual revenue stream from the royalty payments and other sub-franchise fees. As with other franchise options, the price for this alternative is dependent on the population of the proposed territory as well as other economic factors.
