Revive! East Anglia wins BFA Franchisee Trailblazer Award
SMART repairer Revive! East Anglia has won the BFA Franchisee Trailblazer Award at the 2024 BFA HSBC UK British Franchise Awards.
Owners Nathan Holmes, Adam Holmes and Andy Blackhurst collected the award at a glittering black-tie event at the Telford International Centre, in Shropshire.
Nathan Holmes bought the franchise in 2007 and expanded the business across East Anglia when Adam Holmes and Blackhurst came on board as fellow directors.
He said: “We’re delighted to win this award which recognises the dedication, hard work and unity of the whole team here at Revive! East Anglia.”
Pip Wilkins, chief executive of the BFA said:
“This is such a great win for Nathan, Adam and Andy at Revive! East Anglia. The judges were very impressed with their entry, despite them being up against some very stiff competition. We thank them and their team for their hard work and dedication and for being such great ambassadors for ethical business format franchising in the UK today.”
BFA is widely recognised as the UK’s self-regulatory body for franchising. The results of their latest national survey in October revealed that the sector contributes £19.1bn to the UK economy and has a failure rate of just 0.5%.
Revive! was founded in 1994 and franchised in 2004. It currently has 54 franchisees and 215 technicians across the UK, with five multi-territory franchisees.
