Resale of Revive! Preston: New Opportunities

Rohit Kumra, the new owner of Revive! Preston sat down with the Revive! team to discuss what drove him to invest in an established Revive! franchise in Preston.

Rohit only came to the UK with his wife in 2016 to pursue his further education, an MBA from the University of Manchester, prior to this he had lived in India for most of his life.

Rohit started his career in Trading and established his own franchise of Sheer Markets trading before studying at the University of Delhi in 2010 and completing his Masters in economics. Following this he moved around a number of jobs and began to feel he was getting the raw end of the deal. It was at this time he decided to leave India to pursue his international MBA.

Initially Rohit was exploring opportunities in the education franchising sector but soon became aware of the opportunity to buy in to an existing Revive! franchise. Rohit purchased Revive! Preston on the 1st August 2024 and hit the ground running quickly establishing himself as the new owner of the business among his customers and technicians.

One of the key advantages Rohit found in franchising when opposed to sole business ownership was that a lot of the hard financial and marketing work had been done for him allowing him to focus on growing the business in his territory and building his reputation as a business owner. The proven Revive! Business model took care of a lot of the relative unknowns Rohit had about the business and ‘ticked all the boxes’ for him.

Rohit has appreciated how communicative Revive! was from his first interaction with them, quickly integrating him into the business and the Revive! Way. He also understood that Revive! wouldn’t take on just anyone, they were looking for the right people and thoroughly researched each potential franchisee they interacted with. This gave Rohit a feeling of security that the brand he joined wouldn’t be brought down by any bad apples in his surrounding territories.

His short-term plans are to establish himself as the new business owner and build a relationship with his current dealerships along with hiring another technician. In the next year he hopes to add another technician to his line-up allowing him to have a firm base to build the business further.
