Welcome
Buying a business is about more than money or lifestyle. For some people, it’s about getting a better education for their children, or living how or where they want. For others, it’s about healthy living, overcoming setbacks or investing for a financially-secure future. The cover story in the latest Franchise New Zealand magazine tells the stories of sacrifice, determination and sheer hard work from people who bought franchises to build a better future for themselves and their families. Get your free print copy of the magazine or download a free digital copy now.
There’s lots of helpful information on this website, too – from how to choose the right business to finding finance, and legal and accounting advice. There are also profiles of opportunities and a Directory of franchises for sale and advisors.
