The Package

At ChipsAway we understand that franchisees come from very diverse backgrounds with varied career experiences, so we have developed a package that can be tailored to your individual needs.

Your ChipsAway franchise investment starts at £22,500 building to a maximum of £35,000 plus VAT depending on your requirements and the options selected. For further information on the additional options please click here or call 0800 7316914.

ChipsAway's Franchisees are NOT subject to any on-going royalty payments - you simply pay a fixed Licence Fee of £80 per week!

The basic package of £22,500 includes:

  • All protected territory leads from the 24/7 UK-based Call Centre - £20m worth of repair leads were passed to the network in 2009!
  • Protected territory; tens of thousands of prospective customers. Territories are built in such a way that your business and customers are fully protected by clear concise boundaries
  • Full technical training; dedicated sales and marketing coaching
  • The complete ChipsAway AquaClear System
  • Laptop computer and specialist ChipsAway paint code software
  • Fully equipped, personalised VW Mobile Workshop (subject to additional lease charge)
  • Branded uniform, work wear and business stationery
  • Promotional artwork and marketing material
  • Dedicated mobile telephone and personalised website

Although most franchisees initially opt for our mobile system, many find that demand for their services requires them to expand into a multi-van operation or fixed base 'CarCare Centre'.

NB: All prices are subject to VAT
