Franchisee: Phill Lepp

Territory: Bracknell & Maidenhead, Berkshire

Date Established: January 2003

 

Oscar customer through to Nutritional Advisor - thanks to our two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and an invitation to a local dog show.

 

I knew the benefits of franchising having worked as a Small Business Advisor for the Nat West Bank.

 

With 30 years of banking experience behind me I wanted to continue offering my customers a personal service and a good product. I was aware of a potential opportunity in my area and started talking to my Oscar supplier, other franchisees and then to Oscar. By gathering as much information as possible it became very clear that this was the way forward, and being a dog lover sealed the deal.

 

My wife, Jenny, helps with nutritional advice and promotional activities, while I handle administration and direct customer contact. We aim to work hard in our chosen areas and enjoy our work, while helping our family develop their own careers.
