The Range to Launch Homebase Kitchen Franchise
The Range is seeking applicants to run kitchen franchises under the Kitchens by Homebase brand, operating showrooms within The Range stores.
A LinkedIn post states:
Kitchens by Homebase is opening up something genuinely exciting and designed to complement its existing kitchen operations. The chance to run your own kitchen showroom, backed by one of the most trusted names in UK kitchens and one of the fastest growing retail groups.
This isn’t a side hustle, and it’s not a risky startup either. It’s a supported, licence-based showroom model designed for people who already know the kitchens industry inside out, designers and retail leaders who are ready to turn their experience into a business of their own, build a team, and grow something they can be proud of.
Low upfront cost, big brand behind you and a real opportunity to own what you build.
If you’ve ever thought, “I could run this myself,” this is that moment.
The post suggests that ideal candidates would be experienced kitchen designers or retail managers:
Kitchen Designers
If you have kitchen design experience and are ready to take the next step into business ownership, this could be the ideal opportunity. You’ll be motivated, well organised, and confident in making your own decisions while building and running your own kitchen business.
Kitchen Retail Managers
If you’re an experienced kitchen retail manager looking to build your own team and be rewarded as a business owner, this opportunity allows you to leverage your leadership, sales, and operational skills in a business of your own.
The post and supporting documents explain that there would be low start up costs for the right partners and they would be operating under a nationally recognised brand. It emphasises that the opportunity offers limited risk with unlimited growth potential, at in-store locations with thousands of weekly visitors:
Why could this opportunity be ideal for you?
Proven business model
A low-cost opportunity to become a business owner
Rewards for your skills in kitchen design and sales
Full training and support provided
