Women have come so far since the 1950's first mass foray into franchising for stay at home parents, Avon. With a ding-dong and a whirl of glamour at your kitchen table, this franchise was a world untouched by men.
Of course, stay at home parents were always women.
However, modern times have changed and now more than ever, there is a general acceptance that dads can also have the possibility of staying at home with the children.
According to the National Statistics Office, stay at home dads increased significantly post-pandemic with one in four stay-at-home parents now being fathers, compared to just one in nineteen in 2019.
With many men choosing to stay at home to care for their children, out of a conscious decision or unwanted consequences, the franchise market has widened to now include stay-at-home fathers.
With Avon aimed at housewives, the franchise gave franchisees the freedom and confidence that is only felt with the soft bulge of a wad of banknotes.
In our site, we are feature franchise listings that are specifically targeted at stay-at-home parents. As well as the more traditional health and beauty franchises, there is a selection of franchises that would suit a man who may want to reassert his masculinity through work, whilst not neglecting vital childcare duties.
Options include:
- Setting up a travel agency
- Providing accounting assistance
- Starting a gardeningfranchise
- Or providing IT support.
