Impressed by Oscar

Press release date: 10-Aug-2011

With an OSCAR franchise you have the added benefit of making a difference to the life of a pet while also making a difference to your own career. As for Dave and Sharon Whittlestone, OSCAR offered a double opportunity, which could not have come at a better time, when a role reversal meant that Sharon’s plans were passed on to Dave who was in greater need of a more settled future.

“We first met OSCAR at Crufts and Sharon was all set for a career change that would include my help. To make such a life-changing decision we spent time researching and speaking to other franchisees – the thought of running our own business was an exciting proposition.

The OSCAR franchise offered affordability, low risk and a high level of support giving us the extra confidence to reach a decision but only to find that it was going to be my decision when redundancy forced my career into an area of little interest. I had moved from a management role in the coal industry to supervision and stock control within the food chain but the introduction to OSCAR and food for pets had a much better appeal.

“We are dog lovers and Sky, our Blue Merle Border Collie, was in for a big treat when we finally joined OSCAR. Along with Sky, we have been able to support so many other pets in our area that have suffered from skin allergies to tummy problems related to diet. To be able to reduce veterinary bills through our nutritional advice is a reward in itself!

“As each year goes by it becomes clearer as to how many pets are in need of the OSCAR experience and it gives us the greatest of pleasure to continually pass on the benefits of our service.  A benefit that we like to share with local pet rescue homes; fund raising brings new contacts while in the process of supporting a good cause. And where we can enjoy making a much bigger impact on feeding pets, compared to my days of handling food for humans.”

An OSCAR franchise provides the security of a strong brand and protected image that gives you the benefit of running your own business to suit your time and circumstances. Within your own exclusive territory you can provide a convenient and free direct-to-the door delivery service with a comprehensive range of quality pet foods that is supported by an honest label policy – follow the OSCAR system and you will find success.

The opportunity to offer a personal complete pet care service with ongoing expert advice to pet owners, health care products and accessories is unique to OSCAR, bringing many rewards, including repeat business, and the greatest opportunity to meet the UK’s 13 million pet owners – who just love their animals.

OSCAR has, over the years, gained the experience and confidence to recognise the importance of making career-changing decisions. So, if you want the freedom and security of running your own business there is no question that your change for the better should be with OSCAR.
