To develop our international business, we’re looking for individuals or organisations to open and operate a group of Venture studios across an agreed territory within certain countries.
The size of territory and potential number of studios would depend on both the capability of the franchisee and the characteristics of the country. However, as a minimum, we would expect franchisees to be capable, resourced and willing to open a cluster of 5 studios over a 3-year period. We would also be happy to meet organisations with the resources and capabilities to support a larger rollout across a wider area.
Our franchisees are our lifeblood. The entire Venture operation is structured and organised to give each franchisee the best opportunity to reach their full potential. Many of our existing franchisees were not professional photographers prior to joining us or were even currently operating within a photography related business. What they all possess however is an appreciation of photography combined with the resources and abilities to own and operate a photographic business.
In summary, we’re looking for franchisees who:
- Recognise the value of an established brand with a defined and proven business model
- Have the operational and organisational capability to open and develop a group of Venture studios in an exclusive territory
- Possess a good understanding of the portrait market and the wider retail and commercial markets in their country
- Are committed to investing in and developing a network of Venture studios in a defined and exclusive territory
