Ribchester-based Green Shield Group has announced the addition of three new franchise partners to its national network, marking a major milestone in the business’s expansion strategy.
The new franchises in South Lancashire, South Yorkshire, and South Gloucestershire will enhance Green Shield Group’s national presence and contribute local expertise.
Each partner will support the adoption of solar and low-carbon technologies in their region.
Simon Bancroft, strategic business manager, said: “We’re pleased to welcome our new franchise partners to the Green Shield Group network.
"They each bring a unique blend of experience, energy, and passion for sustainability that perfectly reflects our mission.
"With demand for renewable solutions rising, our franchise model allows us to scale quickly while creating regional centres of excellence that support businesses and communities.”
Green Shield Group provides franchise partners with comprehensive training in technical delivery and business operations, supported by the group’s head office team. This ensures consistent customer service, compliance, and long-term support across all franchises.
James Vincent, the new South Gloucestershire franchisee, said: “I was looking for more than just a business opportunity - I wanted something that would allow me to build long-term, sustainable growth while making a real positive impact on both the community and the environment.
"From the moment I came across Green Shield Group, it stood out to me, not only because of its impressive track record and professionalism, but because of the passion of the people behind it.
“You can tell they genuinely care about what they do, and that level of commitment and authenticity is what ultimately convinced me to become part of the team.”
Since launching its franchise model, Green Shield Group has attracted professionals from various industries who want to play an active role in the renewable energy revolution.
This latest expansion brings the UK franchise network to seven regions, with three more expected to be added before the end of 2025.
