Southeast Queensland Entrepreneur to Entertain a New Bedroom Partner
Expanding specialist bedding franchise, Bedshed is seeking a local entrepreneur to join its fast growing business and open Brisbane's third Bedshed store.
Chief Operating Officer, Gavin Culmsee said the company was currently seeking a southeast Queensland site which would offer exceptional potential for a new franchisee.
"Most of our stores are owned and operated by franchisees, including our existing and very successful Bedshed stores at Aspley and Morayfield," he said.
"Our business strategy is to expand through attracting new franchisees on the east coast of Australia and Queensland is a key part of this plan," Mr Culmsee said. "The new site would bring our store presence in Queensland to eight, given we have two stores in Brisbane and five regionally."
"In retail, it's all about location and that's why we invest considerably in finding the right location for a new Bedshed outlet. We undertake an extensive investigation, reviewing a range of sites before pinpointing the right location for a new store," he said.
With limited Bedshed stores locally, a new franchisee would have the chance to capture market share from competitor specialist bedding franchises, with significant behind the scenes support from the company and fellow franchisees.
"Bedshed is a strong franchise model which has been tested and proven over our thirty year history," Mr Culmsee said. "Bedshed franchisees can enjoy the independence of running an owner-operator business with marketing support, collective buying power and the backing of experienced franchisee partners and professional staff."
According to Mr Culmsee, the new franchisee doesn't have to have experience in the bedding industry, nor is franchise or business experience a must.
"We're looking for someone who is committed to making their business successful and willing to put in the effort to reap the reward. We hope to find someone with vision and drive to grow their business and in doing so, secure their financial future and achieve their desired lifestyle," Mr Culmsee said.
