Looking for a lifestyle business offering great returns?
Having established a successful network across the UK, we’re now looking to find a small number of international partners to supply their home markets.
We believe in local, which is why every Wills Certified Provider, is an independent business operating in their own, exclusive territory.
We don’t just work with existing marquee rental companies looking to extend their portfolio, we also work with industry newcomers and startups.
With or without an industry background, the reasons for choosing to partner with us are the same:
- we make the finest traditional marquees money can buy
- we offer unparalleled support with an exclusive territory
- you can expect a high level of return on your investment
The perfect marriage of form and function
Handmade using a blend of traditional artisan skills and the best of modern technology, Wills marquees are made by us in Britain, near York. There is no substitute for coming in person to see a marquee but we have made a film Setting the Scene which we hope will help illustrate the quality of materials and workmanship that go into the making of each and every Wills.
Timelessly elegant, Wills marquees transcend fashion. Nonetheless, we remain committed to evolving the Collection by developing complementary products and driving brand awareness both in our home market and abroad.
Financial reward
Demand is driven by the growing reputation of the Wills brand and a recognition among those in the know, that there are no finer marquees anywhere. We have found that high demand linked to the exclusive rights to supply a region enables premium pricing which leads to high levels of return
Return on investment – the purchase cost of any Wills marquee should be recouped in 5-6 rental bookings and as a marquee is always hired with additional items (furnishings, facilities, services), there is an opportunity for incremental or subcontract profit with each hire.
Support
We offer a level of support which is unique to our industry. In addition to the intangible benefits of the Wills brand umbrella, access to free advice and being part of a network that collaborates rather than competes, you can expect:
- technical training (set up and demount)
- documentation (compliance, safety, technical)
- collateral (brochures, field guides)
- input to product development marketing
- support (social, web)
For those contemplating a new venture, we know how rewarding it is to be your own boss. Having started from scratch ourselves, we also know how hard it is to get things going. So we are always on hand to provide practical advice (as much or as little as might be needed); we’ll help you build your business without dictating how.
Lifestyle
We feel most alive in the outdoors and we work in some of the most beautiful settings imaginable, many of which we would otherwise never have seen. On top of that, we love that what we do makes people happy.
If this strikes a chord with you, then you may well have found your new calling!
