Are you ready to turn your business into a franchise?

"Over the years I have referred people to The Franchise Coach for advice in setting up a franchise, expansion of their franchise and mentoring. Why? Nothing replaces experience and knowledge of franchising in New Zealand and overseas and the Franchise Coach brings experience as a Franchisor, franchisee, business mentor, franchise leader and legals all under the one roof. Having worked with Stewart and David in a range of capacities, their support, knowledge, and experience will provide you with confidence knowing you are dealing with some of the best in the business."

It has always been a pleasure to work with David McCulloch and Stewart Germann, who I have known for many years. They are both highly respected internationally for their depth of knowledge and their pioneering work to advance best practice franchising in New Zealand.

I have been fortunate to know and work with Stewart for more than 20 years. He is without doubt the most experienced franchising lawyer in New Zealand. He is unquestionably the 'go to person' for franchising advice in that jurisdiction. I have worked with him on cross jurisdictional matters between Australia and New Zealand involving mutual clients. He has a very proactive commercial approach to franchising. He has experience in many jurisdictions outside New Zealand (such as Australia) and is well known internationally by the franchising community. He has been over many years an outstanding leader in the franchising community, he regularly presents at conferences and is a sought after speaker. In my opinion Stewart is well respected and highly regarded by franchising lawyers around the world as one of the 'thought leaders' in franchising. I would have no hesitation in referring my clients to Stewart to handle their New Zealand franchising work and other commercial transaction matters.

Forty years ago when I started Bedpost NZ, franchising was a very new industry here. There were no franchise advisors and the process was a bit like trial and error. When The Franchise Coach started it gave a source of experience and expertise many businesses needed. The Franchise Coach has now been synonymous with franchising for over 30 years in New Zealand and has contributed in many ways to the industry. As a company, Bedpost has used the knowledge and experience of The Franchise Coach to help keep the brand “up with the play” in running a business in an ever-changing industry. From franchisee management to documentation; this is their area of expertise. Knowing The Franchise Coach keeps up to date with the changes in the industry and is there for help when you need it is reassuring as a franchisor. I would recommend The Franchise Coach team if you are starting, changing or growing your franchise brand.
