Apparently, the franchisees care more about their business than a typical manager and profit-sharing

The challenges of growing the company nationally saw that the franchise model was the most appropriate way to help FCF clients and also share some of FCF's secrets to success.

Having trialed a branch location in Bundaberg, the decision was made to select franchising due to the quick growth in strategy and removal of middle management. Apparently, the franchisees care more about their business than a typical manager and profit-sharing.

Although, the company's success doesn't rely on one person. The company owes its success to the support team and a group of skilled technicians and electricians.

With their hard work and skills, FCF is a pioneering Fire Protection Company with innovative technology focused on customer experience and also cutting customer costs, while maintaining Australian Standards and compliance.
