Automotive Franchise UK Vantage Valeting

Vantage Valeting is the only mobile car valeting franchise to offer nationally recognised, independent training in mobile car valeting from the British Institute of Cleaning Science. Our franchisees can meet the exacting needs of the motor trade for valeting services which the vast majority of other mobile valeters and car cleaners cannot.

The mobile valeting market in the UK is huge and it’s growing. There are 31 million vehicles on Britain’s roads. Let’s say only one in ten of those drivers wants to have their vehicle valeted: that’s over 3 million vehicles per year.

Vantage Valeting senior management team has over 15 years experience in running mobile car valeting businesses in the UK, and in franchising successful mobile car valeting businesses.

The quality of our workmanship and our unique “Repeat & Refer” scheme are key elements in the success of the Vantage Valeting franchise business. Vantage Valeting franchise business owners also benefit from an exclusive territory, comprehensive two week training programme, supply of initial customers, dedicated on-going business support and assistance with their business expansion plans.

You can have a car valet while you’re at work, while you’re at the supermarket, when you stay at a hotel, or from the comfort of your own home.

For customers, Vantage Valeting has a number of important advantages:

• Our valeters achieve the only nationally recognised training accreditation for vehicle valeting from the British Institute of Cleaning Science as part of their franchise training. (BICS – www.bics.org.uk).
• We are ISO9001 quality certified.
  
• We can bring their vehicle up to showroom condition in a matter of hours.
  
• With regular valeting, we can help to maintain or improve the value of the customer’s vehicle by the time they decide to sell it.
  
• Vantage Valeters have a COSHH certification which means we can work safely on commercial premises at any time, eg – office blocks, industrial estates, etc.

Running a driver operated business (ie – you own and run the business yourself with a fully equipped Vantage Valeting van), you can expect to turn over £65,000 per year. This is the simplest way to run the business and it is usually based at your home. The figures below are based on running the business for 48 weeks of the year, working an 8 hour day, 5 days per week.

Customers don’t just get a clean car: Vantage Valeting offers them a service that they love. You don’t need to give them the hard sell.

Every Vantage Valeting business owns an EXCLUSIVE territory. Our main objective is that you start working in it AS SOON AS YOU COMPLETE YOUR TRAINING.

To make sure you start to earn money immediately, Vantage Valeting will set up at least 30 customer bookings – some of which may have more than one vehicle - for you to go to IMMEDIATELY after your training course. You will be able to perfect the techniques you have learned on training and start to build up a regular customer base.

You will also be able to use our unique “Repeat & Refer” scheme to reach even more customers every time you do a valet. 

ON-GOING SUPPORT

During our two week training course, you will learn everything you need to know about mobile car valeting and achieve a formal Car Valeting Certificate (CVC) from the British Institute of Cleaning Science.

The administrative side of your business is made as simple as possible with standard routines, forms and checklists. Even your book-keeping is simple and paper based; you do not need to be able to use a computer.
