According to ChipsAway Managing Director Steve Bignell the new franchise PCC (Professional Car Cleaning) has been introduced following encouragement from both the automotive market and the franchise industry.

'Currently the marketplace lacks reliable, credible and professional valeting providers, despite strong demand, particularly from the retail and corporate sectors.' Steve explains. 'In addition, research we have carried out in the marketplace points to a real need for quality, competitively priced franchise opportunities. Our extensive industry experience and strong reputation in both the franchise and automotive sectors make us the ideal team to launch this exciting solution.'

For an introductory price of just £9,995, PCC franchisees will operate from smartly liveried, purpose designed VW vehicles, providing a range of professional valeting services with a comprehensive, high quality, specially developed cleaning products, for exclusive use by PCC.

Customers will include private individuals as well as company accounts, and franchisees will be encouraged to build up a 'milk round' of regular, repeat order contracts.

In addition to the large marketplace and proven demand for services, PCC franchisees will benefit from an excellent training and support package, including individually tailored sales & marketing programmes, and will have the significant competitive advantage of direct access to their sister ChipsAway network.

'The fact that PCC will have the experience, quality and powerful brand presence of ChipsAway will be a major selling point for the franchise,' Steve Bignell affirms.

The PCC franchise will be unveiled at the British Franchise Exhibition, held in Manchester at the end of January 2006.
