Join a franchise business renowned for product quality
OSCAR’s history has been steeped in pet food manufacturing for over 25 years – designing formulas for high-quality pet nutrition long before we turned to franchising – giving us a unique understanding of the value of product quality and confidence for business opportunities.
The OSCAR franchise opportunity
OSCAR opportunities are flexible and tailored to suit individual backgrounds and/or experience, whether to develop into a full-time business, treat as a second income or even add to an existing operation.
OSCAR franchisees bring many different skills to our network but share the same desire for a better work/life balance.
With one in two households owning a pet you can be certain of taking up a business opportunity with exceptional staying power and massive income potential.
OSCAR for your customer
We are committed to promoting the health and welfare of family pets, and delivering exceptional customer care. We produce a range of highly nutritious and extremely tasty foods to sustain a healthy lifestyle for cats and dogs.
Formulated by experts since 1994, OSCAR Pet Foods provide balanced nutrition for every life stage.
A reliable, convenient delivery service, making visits to the shops or carrying bulky pet items a thing of the past. Our payment system makes shopping easy and delivery of items can be made whilst the customer is out at work.
By staying focused on building relationships within local communities, we are able to deliver a quality product that is trusted.
A FREE helpline to our experts is a welcome addition, providing ongoing professional advice during the life of their pet.
