Due to population rises, prime areas for TaxAssist Accountants shops have been released for new franchisees.

London has always been a major draw for people interested in taking on a TaxAssist Accountants franchise, with prime areas quickly snapped up. As populations and commuting footfall have risen over recent years, some franchise territories were not being fully utilised in all locations due to size. Through negotiations with existing franchisees, key areas have now been rescoped and released for new franchisees to purchase.

Seth Brown, Senior Manager, UK Recruitment explains: “We always receive a large number of enquiries from potential franchisees interested in taking a franchise in London, but once they are taken, territories do not get released again for many years, due to franchisees successfully building up substantial practices.

“I approached London franchisees to ask if there were any locations they weren’t operating in within their territories, which they would be happy to release, and I am pleased to report that a number of prime locations and territories are now available.

“I have tried to create the new territories in a structured way, so that they have clear identities for a new franchise to operate in, with plenty of good options for shop fronts.”

The locations which have been made available include:

• Earls Court and South Kensington
• Chelsea Central & Battersea West
• Part of Walthamstow
• Whitechapel South
• Bow
