Puddle Ducks once again received outstanding results, praised for the quality of their training and support, as well as the ongoing support provided to franchisees from the team at National Office.

Franchisees believed there was a strong peer support network, through which the network support one another and share best practice. There was a strong recognition that the Puddle Ducks brand helps franchisees to attract customers, differentiating them from others within the sector.
