We went against our accountant’s advice when we opened the first store and we enjoyed it so much and did so well we decided to open a second.

Ibby Hussain – CHIPS Stockton
I actually worked for the CHIPS for about 17 yrs as sales assistant then climbed to manager then operations manager. I opened a number of franchises for CHIPS and soon realised that I could open my own.

I chose franchising because I wanted to work for myself, but also have the added security of a proven company behind me.

I chose franchising as it involves a proven business model. In the case of CHIPS, the backup of experienced industry insiders is a valuable asset to running the business.

James Tildesley – CHIPS Chester Le Street
For a while I had been thinking about the possibility of starting up my own business, but was a bit wary of the risks involved. It became obvious that franchising dramatically reduced the risks involved in starting up a new business.

Susan Lake – Stafford
I was looking to set up on my own, but could not decide which route to take. I sent away for the British Franchise Association’s franchise pack and after reading through it, I decide that franchising offered great support and expertise. Though a little more expensive at first, I thought I would be more likely to succeed as a franchisee.

Steve Morton – Hartlepool
I had worked for CHIPS for 14 years, starting as a Saturday lad when I was at college. Over the years I worked my way up to store manager and then Group area Manager, running the day-to-day operations of the six company stores. Owning my own franchise was the next logical step.

Having previously owned a successful franchise, I decided that when I wanted to do something new another franchise was the logical answer.

Chris Muckell – CHIPS Ashford
I’d always wanted to work for myself in a retail environment, and being an avid gamer, a video games store was the best fit for my interests. I wanted to be in business in something I know and enjoy. I knew that if I’d set up on my own as a solo site independent I would struggle to survive, so decided franchising was the best avenue to take as I could rely on support of the franchisors and their experience and buying power.
