US fruit gift franchise expands into UK
Edible Arrangements, a US based company that creates fruit filled bouquets, is expanding its franchise into the UK. The company has launched its first outlet in Manchester, UK through franchisee Salim Rashid and plans to open another store in the country by the end of the year.
"I was specialising in carpets and upholstery when I came across the idea of Edible Arrangements," says Salim Rashid, Edible Arrangements franchisee. "It didn't take me long to see the scope there was, basically you can give an edible arrangement whenever you might have given a bouquet of flowers.
"They are gifts for individuals, but they are also ideal in the corporate sector. We've already had Volkswagen in Old Trafford choose us for their gifts."
