Stop Press.... Pirtek is proud to announce that it has been awarded the title of British Franchisor of the Year 1997.....

Pirtek is the leading Mobile Hose and Assemblies Service company in Europe. We have an extensive network of distribution centres worldwide and are eager to recruit new franchisees who are interested in opening up new distribution centres.

The driving force behind the industry is hundreds and thousands of companies from huge international conglomerates to small local firms, most of whom are involved in our traditional basic industrial groups. Most of these groups are involved in agriculture, building, construction, civil engineering, earth moving,manufacturing, offshore drilling, mining, marine transport, waste and so on. Almost all of these activities utilise power in some form or another, and that almost universally means that there is some form of hydraulic component in each business.

Each of these firms represents an opportunity for Pirtek products and services. The failure of hydraulic and other types of hoses, within plants or on site, directly affects the productivity of these companies. Ultimately the cost of goods produced and of services provided are also affected. Pirtek has become a highly valued supplier of these firms around the world.

The business is exciting. Opportunities and demands are ever changing. Challenging projects, people contact and a healthy profit potential ensures that the business retains its interest.

In essence Pirtek is a marketing distributor of a wide range of hoses, fittings and associated products from a number of leading manufacturers, the local Pirtek Centre essentially becomes a regional or local distributor in its own right. Pirteks product selection criteria are extremely high. Each manufacturer must meet benchmark standards for quality, reliability, performance, technological innovation and product support which includes research and development, training and technical literature.

We are continuing to expand and develop new markets. We have already established outlets in Germany, Benelux and France. These outlets will enable us to obtain a greater understanding of these markets and will form the platform for further franchise openings throughout Europe.

Franchise Investment / Returns

When combined the products and services which the Pirtek Licensees sell normally produce a gross profit margin of between 50-60% of the total of each individual sale. At this level of margin, once the business becomes mature, healthy and consistent, profit levels can be maintained and a much bigger business can be built up.

The cost of opening a typical Pirtek Centre is normally around £200,000 of which Pirtek can organise financing for two thirds of that amount. This means the prospective Licensee needs to have liquid capital resources of around £70,000. For this he will start his business operating from a 2,000 sq. ft ware house, fully equipped with plant machinery needed for manufacturing hose assemblies, computer hardware and software designed for the task and three mobile workshops, fully fitted out to be able to do 90% of the jobs they are called upon to do, and of course his start up products.

First year turnovers usually range for between £170,000 and £200,000 and grow to £500,000 in the 3-4 year period.
