Pest control and live bee removal franchise buzzing at ongoing success

PGH Beegone Franchising announces second recruit

PGH Beegone is a relatively new franchise, which launched in December 2020. They said:

"We pride ourselves on solving pest problems others can’t while also being the only franchise in the UK to offer live bee removal.

"The franchisor’s first branch, PGH Beegone Bury St Edmunds, launched at the end of April 2021 and, much to owner David Hasler’s delight, is outperforming its targets – having taken £120k + VAT in sales in its first six months"!

It was PGH Beegone’s first time at the National Franchise Exhibition but with live bees and a falcon on the stand, they made sure they weren’t missed!

With over 85 exhibitors and it was a tentative but welcome return to live events. PGH Beegone reported coming away with five strong leads hoping to attend one of their upcoming Discovery Sessions and many more visitors to their stand which was an important brand-building exercise for this emerging franchisor.

MD Peter Higgs said:

“The franchise is really gaining momentum now, we put a lot of time and effort into getting PGH Beegone Bury St Edmunds up and running and profitable and will do the same with our next franchisees.

“The National Franchise Exhibition was a great platform for us and it made me personally even more excited for what’s to come.”
