Description of franchise system

We create the image on the streets

Looking for a franchise opportunity with low overheads, low start-up costs and excellent earning potential? Welcome to Agency Express! Agency Express is the UK's only national wide "for sale" board company, providing a daily board erection and management service to estate agents, in the UK and Ireland.

With Agency Express you'll start a secure existence. Agency Express is fully accredited by both the British and Irish Franchise Associations. At Agency Express, we understand the daily challenges of today’s competitive property market. The image on the streets is vital for estate agents today, and boards are the most effective marketing tool for selling property.

We are specialists in servicing and erecting estate agency signs. Agency Express offers a range of dedicated solutions for cost-effective and hassle-free board management. Our service is much in demand by both corporate and independent agencies, who are attracted by the smart image, quality service levels and the company’s unique centralized accounting system, whereby the larger agencies can receive a single invoice for all nationwide board work – thus reducing their overheads and simplifying their admin.

Your chance for a franchise start! Agency Express was founded specifically as a franchise business to fill this all important gap in the marketplace – a marketplace which continues to grow year by year but is not affected in any way by the ups and downs of the property market itself.
