that our network is made up of Franchise Partners rather
than tyre depot managers. Could you be our next
successful Partner with this franchise opportunity in
Coventry?
Fast-expanding etyres now has over 100 vans fitted with

fitters. Customers can have full confidence in our
professional and efficient service because our Franchise
Partners always provide a superior service than is
available elsewhere, as you may do in Coventry.
New branches are often started as a sole trader business
with the Franchise Partner fitting tyres himself. As the
level of sales grows a trained tyre fitter is employed.
Later a second and third fitter are employed.
Alternatively the business can be operated purely as a
Management Franchise, with all the operational activity
delegated to employees. Either way, branches can be
built up to be very lucrative, with strong sales and
cashflow, as would this franchise opportunity in Coventry.
And etyres is on a fast track towards nationwide
coverage. We can already cover to more than 70% of the

More about Coventry
Coventry was a scattered settlement when Leofric,
Earl of Mercia, and his wife Godiva founded a church
which was dedicated here in 1043. By the end of the 14th
century Coventry had become the fourth most powerful
city in England.
Enormous wealth, from the sale of high quality fleeces
from Midlands sheep, had paved the streets and lined
them with a startling array of handsome buildings in
sandstone and timber frame. Coventry soon became a major
centre of pilgrimage. The Benedictines, Carthusians,
Carmelites and Franciscans had all established religious
houses in the city and Coventry's royal charter of 1345
was the first of its kind in England.
With a two-mile town wall to rival London's, trade
guilds whose membership stretched right across Europe
and royal patronage in the shape of Coventry-held
Parliaments, the city's fortunes seemed secure.
It wasn't until the 16th Century that Coventry's economy
fell into crisis marking the beginning of a cycle of
boom and slump that has characterised the city's history
right up to the present day.
During the Civil War the protection provided by the
city's extraordinary wall helped to guard Royalist
prisoners – hence the term 'sent to Coventry'. But
because of its parliamentary leaning the city fell out
of favour with the Stuarts and on his accession to the
throne Charles II ordered its town wall and defences to
be destroyed.
As the industrial revolution crashed and hammered its
way through Britain, creating new cities, Coventry
dreamed on, secure in its ancient streets and a staple
industry based on ribbon weaving.
Coventry's time-honoured ability to pull a new industry
out of the hat when it desperately mattered threw up a
new saviour in the shape of bicycles. From humble
beginnings in the 1860s the city quickly became the home
of the cycle industry in Britain, attracting inventive
engineers and entrepreneurs by the train-load. By the
last decade of the century the bloom was rapidly fading
from cycle manufacturing. But then in 1896 the Daimler
company began building cars in a disused Coventry cotton
mill, and another new industry was born, one that would
lay the foundations for the city's extraordinary 20th
century expansion.
As late as 1920 the city was being described as one of
the best preserved mediaeval town in Europe, but within
a dozen years the ancient streets were beginning to be
cleared. Car city could no longer support a mediaeval
street pattern and the Luftwaffe merely accelerated what
had already begun.
Between the wars Coventry had been the fastest growing
urban centre in Britain and the city that emerged from
the rubble was central to the new Labour government's
vision of a brave new Britain, with the first
pedestrianised shopping centre in Europe and a higher
rate of car and home ownership than any other industrial
city.
Twenty years on, things have changed for the better.
Coventry now boasts two universities – The University of
Warwick and Coventry University. The city’s business and
science parks are some of the most successful in the
Midlands and links with Europe are thriving. Initiatives
such as the Arena, the new home of Coventry City
Football Club and a major new leisure facility will
continue to revitalise and raise the city’s profile
immensely, while a ?50m joint development by Arrowcroft
and Scottish Life to rejuvenate the Lower Precinct is
now complete.
Coventry has also embarked on a programme to redevelop
its major city centre cultural venues with a new
frontage to the Coventry Transport Museum and a huge new
development at The Herbert which will see a new History
Centre, Creative Media and Arts facilities, new
galleries and exhibitions, school space cafe's and much
much more. The Belgrade Theatre is also about to start a
major development project.
