Apollo Blinds is one of the leading retailers of window blinds, shutters and awnings in the UK and Ireland

We offer extensive options of blinds including the registered trademarks Duette® and Intu®. Moreover, we have products for skylight architecture, and curtain accessories aside from our blinds offerings which may be pleated, roller, twilight or even Venetian.

At Apollo Blinds, we listen closely to our customers and work religiously with our manufacturers to provide top-notch products that comply with the high standards of the industry. As a member of the world’s largest manufacturer of window blinds, we have the largest number of blinds collections available in the UK and the biggest collection of exclusive fabrics for blinds.

The industry is continuously evolving and we are not afraid to go, live and change with it. This has been one of the many reasons why for more than 40 years, we are still the top provider of window blinds. Our resilience is simply unmatched. In addition, we boast a customer care service second to none as it is one of the primary reasons why we have a large, loyal customer base. This formula of a great business model coupled with high-quality products plus excellent customer services makes us the successful company that we are.

The Franchise

Our extensive experience in the industry spanning four decades makes us not only experts in the products that we offer but also in running our successful company. However, to meet the increasing demands of the sector, we are still open for franchising to those who want to own a trusted and proven business. Interested franchisees need at least £20,000 for the initial investment. The package includes the training programme, marketing materials, your own website and everything needed for a proper presentation of our exclusive collections. There are no inventory fees as our products are specifically measured for our customers.

Training and support provided

We attribute much of our success not only to the strength of our business model and the quality of our products but of the power of our franchisees. That is why we are with the franchisees from the first step onwards. We have five areas of support for our new and existing franchisees; namely, head and support team for daily inquiries, area managers for strategic growth support, product trainers for technical support, marketing support for advertising and peer support for knowledge sharing. All of this is done to ensure that our franchisees remain competitive and may be able to reach their desired goals in a faster way.

Apollo Blinds started offering blinds services in 1972. An original member of the British Franchise Association, we have been franchising since our inception and now have more than 50 outlets nationwide. Moreover, we are now a part of the Hunter Douglas Group which boasts an annual turnover of more than £2 billion in the UK.
