About the Opportunity
Mad Dogs & Englishmen Brisbane is a highly profitable mobile dog walking and doggy daycare business with a loyal, established client base. It offers the opportunity to spend your days outdoors working with dogs while earning an excellent income from a well-established business.
Core services include:
Small group walks (up to 4 dogs)
Doggy Day Care, including multiple walks throughout the day
The business currently generates approximately $156,000 in annual revenue and operates with a single van that is close to full capacity. It is ideal for an owner-operator, with excellent growth potential through the addition of a second van and walker.
The sale includes a fully equipped work van valued at approximately $20,000 ($17,000 for the vehicle plus approximately $3,000 worth of tools, equipment, and vehicle graphics), allowing you to start operating immediately.
We established Mad Dogs & Englishmen Brisbane in 2017, originally servicing the entire Brisbane metropolitan area. Since then, we have successfully sold five franchise territories across Brisbane, and this is the final territory available.
We deliberately retained this territory because it is the most profitable, thanks to its high concentration of clients and efficient operating logistics. We are now selling it because we are based in New South Wales, where we operate three other Mad Dogs & Englishmen franchises, and the time has come to hand Brisbane over to a new owner.
Whoever purchases this franchise will be stepping into what is arguably one of the most profitable Mad Dogs & Englishmen franchises in the network, benefiting from an established customer base, proven systems, and strong ongoing demand from day one.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who loves dogs, understands customer service, has good business skills, and wants to own a profitable, established business with immediate income and significant potential for future growth.
