Site Auditing and Profit Consultancy Experts
Venners offer an all-rounded suite of operational excellence business services to UK franchisors and franchise owners.
Our nationwide auditors and experts are trained to improve the risk resilience and profit protection of any franchise brand.
Supporting franchise brands as they grow, we provide consultancy advice on establishing profitable policies and procedures. We also audit individual franchise sites across the UK to ensure they are operating according to agreed standards and controls, as set out in the franchise agreement.
Every site audit we perform acts as a health check to determine how successfully each franchise site represents and contributes to the franchise brand. The franchisor or franchise owner then gains a holistic overview of the performance scores of all sites associated to their franchise brand, whilst strengthening their relationship with the individual franchise site.

SITE AUDITS
Our auditors check branch level compliance in-person against a standardised framework that is customised to the client. These audits are completed using specialist software, reporting on key compliance category scores achieved by each site.
Detailed audit results are reported on a site level basis and can be acted upon thanks to corrective and preventative action management functionality in the software. Overview reporting containing audit scores across all sites and persistent non-compliance issues are then visible to management via an online portal.
