Testimonials
MARK Thompson was one of hundreds who lost their jobs when the Terrys factory closed in York. But he turned disaster into triumph by using his redundancy pay to invest in his own business a franchise of Chemex International, Europes top supplier of cleaning and hygiene products. Now, four years on, having doubled turnover last year and scooped awards, he is forecasting sales of more than 200,000 and preparing to take on staff for the first time as a string of new contracts come through. So successful is Mark, based in James Street, York, that he is pitching not only for Small Business Of The Year in The Press Business Awards 2009, but also Growth Business Of The Year. The franchise, which covers a large part of North Yorkshire, supplies a wide array of businesses across the county, including local authorities, care homes, hotels and restaurants and schools and colleges. He said: It may sound strange, but losing my job after 17 years at Terrys was one of the best things ever to happen to me. It opened up new opportunities and gave me the chance to set myself up in business.

With his business generating an annual turnover of 400,000 and an extensive client base built on repeat business, seasoned Chemex franchisee Charles Williams Cheshire-based business continues to beat the recession. A former farmer, Charles joined the Chemex network in 1989 when profit margins in the agricultural industry nosedived and he was unable to maintain a comfortable lifestyle for his family. Eager to re-train and to continue working for himself, Charles decided to explore franchising.

Chemex franchisee of six years Malcolm Dixon has never looked back since acquiring his franchise. Previously employed in the corporate world, Malcolm lived a life that consisted of a 7am flight on a Monday to Frankfurt where he would be lucky if he returned home on a Thursday night. After being made redundant, Malcolm seized the opportunity to find something that he would enjoy, doing a job where he could fully reap the benefits of his own labour.

John Heslop started his career as a mining engineering apprentice in the early 70s and worked his way up to senior position with British Coal by the 1980s. Hard work and study had given him a bright future in an industry that by then was going nowhere.
