Community Engagement: A deep understanding of the local area and community to ensure the business aligns with customer needs and market demand.

We believe these qualities are essential for the success of our franchisees, and we are dedicated to finding individuals who share our passion for outdoor hospitality and creating memorable experiences.

One of the many benefits of joining our bell tent hire franchise is becoming part of a supportive community of like-minded business owners, all focused on success. While you’ll have the autonomy to run your own business, you’ll also receive comprehensive support from our dedicated team. This blend of independence and support ensures that you have the resources and guidance to thrive, making it easier to achieve your business goals while benefiting from the strength of the larger network.

Over the years, we have built our bell tent hire business into a successful and thriving operation. The systems and processes provided to our franchisees are tried and tested, designed to ensure growth and long-term success. We speak from experience, backed by a wealth of knowledge about what works and what doesn’t. We are always looking for ways to improve and evolve, and we welcome any ideas or suggestions you may have to help your business thrive.

Absolutely! That’s the beauty of our franchise model – we guide you through every step of the process. From managing bookings and creating an efficient operational system to setting up and maintaining the tents for events, we provide comprehensive training. We also cover customer service, marketing strategies as well as management and coordination for your events. We’re here to support you as much or as little as you need, ensuring you feel confident in running your bell tent hire business.

The initial agreement begins with a one-year 'pilot' term, which can be easily renewed for an additional five years – with no renewal fee. For this one-time fee, you’ll receive your license, comprehensive initial training, ongoing support, a launch package, and detailed franchise manuals to guide you through every step of the journey. We look forward to a long and successful partnership, whether it's through the initial one-year pilot term, the following five-year agreement, or beyond.
