Hydraulink Australia has unveiled its business format franchise with a mobile regional option and a full service metro-based centre.

Hydraulink’s breadth of experience stretches across New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific island region with hydraulic hose and fittings solutions at more than 400 service points.

The company has been built over 25 years providing services from rapid hose repair in emergency breakdowns, to customised hose and fittings kits, to onsite hydraulic hose service at remote large-scale projects, through a distribution network.

“Hydraulink is proud of its longstanding distributor network,” says Owen Knight, Hydraulink Australia CEO. “We are also extremely pleased that our extensive franchise recruitment drive is bringing in excellent prospective franchisees from across Australia. We already have a franchisees coming on board in NSW, Victoria and Queensland.”

There are two franchise models, the stand-alone model and the full hose service centre, suitable for franchisees with a technical, mechanical or commercial background, or a combination of all three skill-sets. The franchise is ideal for companies looking to expand into an aligned industry or for partners, and can also operate as a family business.

The  stand-alone model is a single fully equipped service vehicle operated by a trained hose service technician. This offers customers a mobile breakdown service and is primarily suited to a regional market. This model is designed for growth: franchisees can take on a second mobile vehicle which can then lead to a full hose centre.

The full hose service centre is combined with one or more mobile service vehicles, staffed by employee service technicians. Full centre franchises are available in major cities or within territories where the anticipated turnover warrants a full franchise at start-up.
