eBusiness UK, the ambitious Lancashire-based company now has a presence in Edinburgh.

Enjoying success from its base in northwest England for a decade, eBusiness UK offers a market-leading range of services including web design and development, e-commerce solutions, Internet marketing and web applications development.

Now Edinburgh entrepreneur Neil Fraser has taken eBusiness UK into the City, with the first of what is expected to be over a hundred franchised operations across the UK. He found the opportunity through the Franchise Direct website.

Clients of eBusiness UK have included BT, the Department of Trade and Industry and hundreds of small and medium sized businesses.

Neil was looking for a franchise to invest in when he heard about eBusiness UK. The business itself was an attractive proposition, but Neil’s experience in content management systems allowed him to recognise the company’s potential.

Neil said: “I compared a number of franchises on the market and was attracted by the quality of the services offered by eBusiness UK.

“Unlike many expanding companies, eBusiness UK is committed to offering a personal service through a friendly and professional team.”

eBusiness UK managing director Kam Kothia said: “We are delighted to have Neil on board, and we are actively looking for more franchise partners.

“The franchise model has been in development for a while, and is based entirely on our successful operation here in East Lancashire.

“When it was time to recruit our first franchise partner, we spent a lot of time making sure we had the right type of person to lead it – Neil ticked all our boxes and we are enthusiastic about our company’s future in Edinburgh and throughout the UK.”

The company, which also has strategic partnerships in Mumbai and New Delhi, plans to further expand by operating franchises throughout the UK.
