Transition your can-do attitude and organisational skills, become your own boss and enjoy lucrative and varied physical work outdoors with Ed’s Garden Services. Your discipline and determination, plus backing from Ed’s expert team, means you can expect success from the day you start with the UK’s largest professional garden maintenance franchise.

Why Ed’s? Why Gardening?
Ed’s Garden Services has had a proven business model since 2003 that is used by 40+ successful franchisees, including business owners from military and public service backgrounds. In addition to training and on-going professional support, you’re guaranteed work to get you started, so your business will be making you money from day one. 

Case Study – Guy, ex-armed forces
Up and running fast

“I started my career in the armed forces, so I’ve always been a hard working outdoor type. I was surprised how quickly my Ed’s business was set up. When you start a franchise, you always feel there is a risk. But Ed’s reduces the risk with support, training, advice and guaranteed initial work. For reassurance, do some research, weigh-up the pros and cons, talk to an existing franchise business owner and then, the obvious thing to do is, go ahead!

I’m running a great franchise business with a fantastic lifestyle.”

While based on Ed’s winning formula, it will be your garden services business. You’ll be in control, driving your business growth while working flexible hours year-round and growing your earnings in line with your ambition. £50,000+ is achievable working alone. Or maybe take a leadership role, employ others and build a multi-van business turning over £120,000+. Ed’s is unique with our business splitting facility for equity release. When the time comes to hang up your gardening gloves, you can cash in and sell your successful business. So, there is money in gardening!

You’ll also be providing efficient, high quality gardening services, valued by both commercial and residential customers, all while gaining the health benefits of doing varied physical work outdoors in green spaces.

Ensuring Your Success
If you’re ambitious, motivated, resilient and personable, you will succeed.  You don’t need gardening experience either. A (no obligation) trial, working with an established business owner confirms Ed’s is right for you from the start. High-quality initial and on-going training and guidance is provided. 

Our advanced business management technology allows you more time for paid customer work by streamlining your admin and accounting and our trusted brand gives customers confidence in your business. In fact, every franchisee who has joined Ed’s and followed the model has been successful. Why? Because you avoid all the pitfalls (financial and other) of ‘going it alone’ with Ed’s proven business model and experience supporting 40+ franchisees.
