Walfinch Rises Eight Places in the Elite Franchise Top 100
Walfinch home care has been named as a top 100 franchisor in the prestigious Elite Franchise Top 100 (EF100) for the third consecutive year. This year it's risen eight places to reach number 50 from hundreds of franchise organisations across every sector.
Walfinch founder and CEO Amrit Dhaliwal says: “It's brilliant that Walfinch has been recognised for the whole network's contribution within the franchise industry. To have reached number 50 in the Elite Franchise Top 100 six years after Walfinch was founded demonstrates the calibre and hard work of our senior team. They bring significant franchise and care experience to the network, so all of our franchisees, carers and clients benefit.”
Walfinch now has franchisee managing directors delivering high-quality personalised care from local offices across the country. Several offices are now reaching £2million in turnover, and around 700 people are now receiving care from Walfinch's team of 500 carers.
“My experience as a home care franchisee before founding Walfinch helps me understand the support that franchisees need to make the most of the huge opportunities that home care presents,” Amrit says. “We are dedicated to expanding Walfinch because home care is a sector in which franchisees can change lives in the local community while building a sustainable business.”
The EF100, established in 2017 in association with HSBC, is the franchising list that recognises the sector’s brightest businesses and ranks them according to a broad range of criteria; from their financial performance and heritage, to their contribution to the community and the way they embrace innovation.
Walfinch has implemented many innovative initiatives to benefit its franchisees, carers and clients.
Amrit says: “Our new tagline is Time to Thrive, and under this we have launched Wellness With Walfinch, a campaign to bring more activity and mobility to our home care clients, their families, carers and communities. Our franchisees are now guaranteeing at least ten minutes of activities, chosen by clients, on all care visits of one hour or more, and putting on events such as chair yoga, fitness and craft sessions in their communities.
“For franchisees it means building thriving businesses built around encouraging care clients to thrive, while enabling carers to build thriving careers.”
