Snap-on Tools makes shortlist

Snap-on Tools has been shortlisted for the British Franchise Association’s Franchisor of the Year award.

The awards celebrate consistent growth, innovation, network support and contribution to the sector.

National franchise manager, Lisa Law, said: “We’re over the moon to have been shortlisted and recognised alongside other incredible franchisors. This achievement is a great indication of how much we do for our network of over 400 franchisees around the country. I’m very proud to be a part of the team and thank every single person in the Snap-on family for their continued commitment and hard work over the last 12 months.”

If successful, this would be the second national franchising award in less than 12 months for the UK team. In late 2019, it topped the polls in the annual Elite Franchise Top 100.

Lisa said: “We attribute the success of our franchise opportunity to the innovative ways in which we encourage new talent into the network. Our tools are known as the best in the business, so we’ve often found talented prospects wanting to buy a franchise but have not yet been able to raise all the required funds to invest. We’re all about inspiring the next generation of franchisees at Snap-on, so we launched our reduced entry package to help these entrepreneurs get out on the road.”

Winners of the Franchisor of the Year Awards 2020 will be announced in November.
