Why franchising?
Franchising is a proven business method. It allows for skilled, motivated individuals to open and operate their own businesses, but with the support of established brands and systems behind them.
Carter Jewelers will provide its franchisees with the knowledge we've gained over the years.
We'll provide assistance with inventory purchasing, store promotions, sales techniques, or other key operational issues. As a Carter Jewelers franchisee, you'll also have access to our established marketing campaigns and materials. You'll leverage our expert team for more complex jewelry repairs. And, you'll utilize a Point of Sale system designed specifically for retail jewelry locations.
There's no need to be a certified gemologist or have experience in the fine jewelry industry. But we do look for franchisees who have a dedication to customer service, good sales and business management skills, a commitment to providing only the finest products.
