How we train and support you
Greensleeves franchisees receive full initial training and the ongoing back-up of a highly committed management team.

The course includes an NPTC program and exam which is required by law for you to handle pesticides in a commercial situation.
The Last two years have been a rollercoaster ride for most businesses, and whilst many were hit hard by the pandemic, Greensleeves' franchisees are riding the wave of a booming market with a huge increase in their revenue over the last 12 months.
In January 2021 - already a record breaking year - they took £500k across the network. This January, it was £800k – an incredible growth in revenue of 62% year-on-year.
Greensleeves has forecast a further 12.7% growth in 2022, with a further huge uptake of new customers by the end of the year.

What do Greensleeves look for in a franchisee?
An absolute commitment to customer service is the most important skill you will possess.
It is important to us that you have the appetite to grow a business to its full potential and maintain the high levels of customer service that we currently provide to our many thousands of existing customers.
You will be somebody who is not work shy and take on the challenges that running your own franchise business brings. Franchisees need to be able to manage a daily routine that requires a degree of semi-physical activity. You need to be flexible and self-motivated; very few business opportunities offer success without hard work, commitment and long and often unsocial hours.
