that our network is made up of Franchise Partners rather
than tyre depot managers. Could you be our next

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 Manchester.
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 Manchester.
And etyres is on a fast track towards nationwide
coverage. We can already cover to more than 70% of the

More about Manchester
Manchester is, first and foremost, a
city, with a clear boundary marking where it ends and
where Stockport, Salford, Oldham, or any of the other 10
Metropolitan Boroughs begin. Manchester is also one of
the discreet Boroughs of Greater Manchester Metropolitan
County which was invented in 1974 as an administrative
entity.
At that time its new Metropolitan
boundaries were created, comprising 2 cities in their
own right (Manchester and Salford), six towns (formerly
County Boroughs - Bury, Bolton, Oldham, Stockport,
Rochdale and Wigan), and 2 newly created boroughs -
Tameside and Trafford. These last two stand out as
somewhat of an oddity as there is no geographical place
called Tameside or Trafford.
The title of "Greater Manchester" is a largely
convenient entity for practical administrative purposes,
though all the 10 metropolitan borough towns of which it
is comprised have a real confederation and act as one
body in many respects, though it still remains in many
ways chiefly a postal and political distinction.
The Metropolitan Boroughs of Greater
Manchester are (in alpha-betical order) :
Bolton
Bury
Manchester
Oldham
Rochdale
Salford
Stockport
Tameside
Trafford
Wigan Visitors need to be certain what
they mean when making such distinctions, and tread
warily lest local sensibilities are offended by
well-meaning though insensitive gaffs. (The author
frequently receives irate letters and email from
individuals defending their god-given right to belong to
Lancashire and not to what they see as a fictitious and
nebulous administrative body as Greater Manchester).
To demonstrate the sensitivity of such terminology, when
the boundaries of Metropolitan Boroughs were created in
1974, there was a proposal to rename the new Oldham
Metropolitan Borough as 'Newham' or 'Milltown' - the
proposal was, needless to say, most heavily defeated on
account of considerable local opposition to it. There
was even a move afoot to name what eventually became
Greater Manchester as 'SELNEC' - (South East Lancashire
North East Cheshire). That too, happily, was booted out
of court. Further, when in 1986 the
Greater Manchester Metropolitan County, along with all
other Metropolitan Counties, was formally abolished,
much of its administration infrastructure remained in
place (just to confuse things), and for several years
the costly County Hall built on the corner of Piccadilly
gardens stood forlorn and empty.
Hence, fierce arguments take place between two opposing
lobbies - those who maintain that Bolton, Bury, Oldham,
etc, are back in the County of Lancashire, (and that
they never really left it), and those who believe they
are now firmly fixed in the County of Greater
Manchester. Bearing in mind this
understandable partisan spirit, it's clear that we need
to distinguish between Manchester (the City), Greater
Manchester (the Metropolitan County) and the County of
Lancashire. We have tried to do this and are most happy
for the people of Wigan, Rochdale and the other
townships to consider themselves in Lancashire, and for
Stockport to remain in Cheshire. As to Trafford, which
acquired lands both from Cheshire and Lancashire, we
cannot say. However, Manchester itself is clearly a
focal point. Whatever you decide to call the place, it
is unequivocally the hub of a large county.
