The Stone Shop Now Franchising Customized Countertops
Writer's note: Here's a recap of an original article that reads more like a press release than a news article. However, it does show the wide breadth and direction in housing services that franchising continues to grow into. This time it is in a retailer of granite, marble and customized countertops that begins to sell franchises.
The Stone Shop International is launching what it believes to be the first national franchising network in countertops. Franchisees will receive equipment packages, fabricator training, sales and marketing support, sales training, and economies of scale in their supply chain.
Company owner Art Attaway observes, “Franchisees will receive the benefit of pre-negotiated discounts on equipment, supplies and materials, and will save tens of thousands of dollars in equivalent time and cash in their business start-up, and have advanced sales and marketing programs, and the availability of national accounts."
