When Shaun & Dawn Brigden heard that their Oscar Pet Foods franchisee was due to retire, they didn’t hesitate in making contact! They felt that buying an existing franchise was an ideal opportunity because all the elements were in place and it was just what they were looking for. 

 

“Building homes for people and giving a home to rescue dogs has been our life. Thirty years in the building industry, and thinking long-term future, would I be fit enough to continue climbing ladders in another thirty years? Nevertheless the temptation to change only came when our current OSCAR pet food supplier was planning retirement.

 

“We knew the product and our three dogs, Vegas, Max and Freddie, were enjoying the benefits of a complete pet care service and nothing but quality food. We were tempted and applied for an information pack. The purchasing experience was thorough and all at a pace to suit our needs.

 

“Having been self-employed without the support of a much larger enterprise, I was capable of handling the ups and downs of business while Dawn’s work at pre-school, for the last ten years, still gave us the chance to enjoy family life. A change of career could not disrupt our lifestyle and OSCAR, as we see it, will allow us the chance to run a successful business with even more time together.

 

“We are looking forward to maintaining animal welfare in our area and having knocked on enough doors through the building trade, our approach will be much easier when it comes to meeting people and pets – carefully resisting the temptation of taking on another dog from the RSPCA.”

 

An OSCAR franchise provides the security of a strong brand and protected image that gives you the benefit of running your own business to suit your time and circumstances. Within your own exclusive territory you can provide a convenient and free direct-to-the door delivery service with a comprehensive range of quality pet foods that is supported by an honest label policy – follow the OSCAR system and you will find success.

 

OSCAR has, over the years, gained the experience and confidence to recognise the importance of making career-changing decisions. So, if you want the freedom and security of running your own business there is no question that your change for the better should be with OSCAR.
