"Recognition Express has seen me through learning all about printing and production, little accounting problems, sourcing unusual products, providing marketing literature and PR for me, negotiating with big brands on my behalf, and visiting me to make sure I'm okay.
Sally Findlay, Recognition Express (Mid Surrey)

 Be your own boss

Wouldn't it be great to control your own destiny, create long term security for you and your family, never worry about redundancy and never again have to answer to a boss? Franchising can provide you with exactly that opportunity. To be in business for yourself, not by yourself.

 You're not alone

With Recognition Express it's you who makes the key decisions in taking your new business forward. But you will never be left on your own. We are always on hand with help and advice, business planning, financial planning, marketing programmes, training and much more. We'll give you the tools to succeed, all you need to do is build your business, give excellent customer service and manage your very own profits.

 Your Purchasing power

As part of the largest franchise network for recognition products in Europe you benefit from our considerable purchasing power. This purchasing power enables you to be competitive in the market place and maintain a high level of profitability. Many products for you to overprint are held in stock in Recognition Express's own warehouse and distribution service ready for immediate despatch and  to allow you to respond to customers on demand.


 Centralised Production

We have joined together with our largest Franchise Owner to create a separate company - REtrade Limited - to offer a central production and warehousing operation to the Recognition Express Network.

 Normal business hours

We are solely business to business and our Franchise Owners supply to organisations,not the general public, therefore your normal hours are in line with office hours. Of course, you may choose to work longer hours to give a faster service to your customers to build your business more quickly, but that will be through your own choice, not from a requirement of opening for business during unsocial hours.

 Computerised clean production

You will receive a range of production equipment as part of your opening pack. Our production methods use state of the art, easy to use, computerised equipment, which is clean and safe. You do not have any of the problems associated with old methods of printing, no mixing messy inks to try and colour match, no long set up times,no large drying racks taking up valuable space,no use of chemicals requiring special disposal and definitely no lengthy clean up of inks and equipment.You will produce dramatic full colour images -nothing could be easier.

 Work from home

It is perfectly safe to set up and run your Recognition Express business from home. In fact it really doesn't take much space at all. Working from home will keep overheads low and with no staff requirement you can maximise your profitability from day one. Of course this does not rule out expansion in the future and as your business grows you will become a Business Manager with a team of staff operating from commercial premises. But even then, with no need for expensive high street premises, costs can be contained.
