Cartridge World founder Paul Wheeler is back in franchising, three years after selling down stake in the business.
Mr Wheeler returns to the industry after he and co-founder Bryan Stokes sold down their share of the successful global business for a reported $70 million.
Mr Wheeler and former Cartridge World regional managing director Mike Fuller have reunited to form a Norwood-based firm that will offer a guiding hand to others wanting to enter franchising.
Group Seven Franchising will announce its first clients in February. The directors also expect to reveal plans for a master franchise with a potential 70 outlets in Australia and New Zealand early next year.
