Naturhouse steps up growth in Switzerland with two new franchises in Gland and La Chaux de Fonds
Madrid, 23 October 2015.- Naturhouse, a company specialising in the sale of diet products and dietary re-education, has opened two new establishments in Switzerland. The centres are located in Gland (Route de riant-coteau 5, in the canton of Vaud) and La Chaux de Fonds (Rue de Serre 10, in the canton of Neuchatel).
Naturhouse, which operates in Switzerland via the Master Franchise model, opened its first establishment in Lausanne in March. The centre’s progress has been better than expected and this has meant the company has been able to open the new centres sooner than forecast.
According to Naturhouse President Félix Revuelta, “The rapid growth of the company in Switzerland once again confirms our ability to continue growing our business model in countries where our presence remains small. Furthermore, the Swiss population’s high level of purchasing power will mean we can register attractive levels of profitability.”
With this new development, the company, which already operates in 29 countries, is making progress in meeting its targets for 2016. On 30 June 2015, it had 2,046 centres, both directly operated and franchises, which is a company record for the number of establishments. Furthermore, the satisfaction rate among franchisees remains high, with 90% of successful franchises renewing their contract at the end of the initial five-year period.
