A clean environment

Chemex offers customers a range of sustainable and biodegradable products

Chemex franchisees have been offering a van-based, business to business hygiene service to hotels, restaurants, cafes, care homes, NHS trusts and others for more than 30 years.

The diverse and impressive mix of customers is a testament to the excellence of the company’s range and the value it adds to client’s businesses. Chemex franchisees become trusted partners to their customers, who rely on the expertise they can offer.

As a manufacturer and innovator of cleaning, hygiene and infection control products, Chemex offers unique, environmentally friendly hygiene and cleaning solutions.

The Chemex range is sustainable, biodegradable and environmentally responsible, with many of its products formulated using natural biological agents (rather than harsh chemicals) to give incredible cleaning results. The company supplies superconcentrates, which are diluted on site using refillable trigger bottles, minimising packaging and transport costs and environmental impacts.

This smart thinking saves valuable resources and cuts costs for customers.

Dynamic training

New franchisees benefit from a dynamic, hands-on initial training scheme and continual learning. This helps them to become the trusted expert customers can turn to for guidance and advice on all hygiene matters.

They learn how to improve customers’ hygiene outcomes, how to offer great advice, pinpoint solutions to customer needs, identify and implement preventative measures and train customers to use products safely, effectively and efficiently.

Super support and outstanding opportunity

Field-based franchise support teams, as well as dedicated head office staff, provide support to take franchisees from start-up through to profitability. Franchisees benefit from low royalty fees, an exclusive and extensive territory, effective lead generation, cutting edge mobile technology, sales, marketing and technical support, plus great returns.

Application and motivation are considered critical success factors, rather than background or sales skills. Franchisees who demonstrate enthusiasm for developing their business will reap excellent rewards. Unlimited opportunities for growth mean franchisees may decide to employ staff or operate more than one van.

Stephen Crinks, a long-standing Chemex franchisee, explains: “Running a Chemex franchised business is hard work, always challenging, but immensely rewarding. No two days are ever the same.

“You have the satisfaction of helping your customers run their own businesses to the highest standard, being compliant with ever changing legislation, as well as getting to know them and their needs and establishing working relationships that last for many years.”

Chemex is a stable and successful franchise business that offers opportunities for growth, profitability and satisfaction. The company has operations in Europe, Scandinavia, the Middle East, North America and Australasia, as well as more than 70 branches in the UK.
