We have a franchise opportunity in Southwark. If you have

expanding team of successful Franchisees.
We offer the lowest prices on all leading brands of

fit tyres and batteries at the customer's home or place
of work. And because our service is fully mobile, we
don't have expensive tyre depots, which means our prices
are always low.
The primary reason that our service is second to none is
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
Southwark?
Fast-expanding etyres now has over 100 vans fitted with

today's vehicles. The work is guaranteed and carried out
by our Franchise Partners who employ fully trained tyre
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 Southwark.
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 Southwark.
And etyres is on a fast track towards nationwide
coverage. We can already cover to more than 70% of the
UK car owning population. However we still have
franchise Territories available in key areas, including
Southwark. Full training is provided in all aspects of the
business. Head Office backup includes National Sales,

More about Southwark
The London Borough of Southwark, with justification,
claims to be London’s most historic borough. (Its
closest rivals in this claim, Westminster and the City
of London have the status of City, not borough.)
Southwark claims this historic distinction because the
ancient town of Southwark provided the southern bridge
foot for the Roman crossing to London. The town of
Southwark has been a significant settlement in its own
right for the last one thousand years, but the borough’s
historic distinction spreads far beyond its ancient
centre. Bermondsey and Rotherhithe are long-established
centres of settlement and industry. The former was the
hub of London’s leather manufacturing and the latter a
centre for seafaring, ship building and repair, and
later, commercial docks. Dulwich, which still retains a
semi-rural character, has a school that dates to the
17th century and the surrounding landed estate has been
run by a single body since that time.
The London Borough of Southwark is a modern concoction,
created in 1965, of the Metropolitan Boroughs of
Southwark (which in turn was made from an amalgamation
of the ancient parishes of Christ Church, St Saviour, St
George the Martyr, and St Mary Newington), Bermondsey
(which comprised the parishes of St Thomas, St John,
Horselydown, St Mary Bermondsey and St Mary Rotherhithe)
and Camberwell, which had the same boundaries of the
parish of that name dedicated to St Giles. Camberwell
parish was huge, also comprising the districts of
Peckham, Nunhead and Dulwich.
For much of its early history Southwark, Bermondsey and
Rotherhithe provided London with many of the elements
and services all cities need but rarely like admitting
to. These included disreputable entertainments - in the
17th century Bankside was the home of London’s public
theatres and for centuries before, its red light
district. Southwark was home to numerous prisons such as
the Clink, the Kings Bench and the Marshalsea. Its
reputation for crime is celebrated in the comic creation
of Del Trotter (Only Fools and Horses, BBC TV), who has
Peckham as his home. Bermondsey was home to industry,
notably smelly leather production. The district has
always been home to immigrants: Dutch and Flemings in
the 16th and 17th centuries; Germans and Irish in the
19th century and Cypriot, Caribbean, south Asian and
African in more recent years.
Because of its proximity to London, Southwark has always
had an uneasy relationship with its large neighbour. At
times the City has resented Southwark’s independence and
has attempted to assert its control. It did this in 1550
when the City became freeholder of much of the land in
north Southwark, and at the end of the 19th century when
Southwark nearly became part of the City, rather than
the London County Council.
The development of north Southwark started in the late
18th century and was linked to the City building new
bridges over the Thames, and Turnpike Trusts building
new roads to serve them. At the same time Camberwell’s
clean air and water helped it develop as a middle-class
suburb. Walworth, Peckham, Nunhead and East Dulwich
developed in the 19th century, encouraged by London’s
inexorable demand for housing and improvements in
transport. Dulwich has stayed aloof from these trends.
The Estate, which has effectively been administered by
the same body since the early 17th century and which has
the interests of Dulwich College and the other
educational institutions it has spawned at its heart,
has actively discouraged suburban development.
Today the borough is one of great contrasts: prosperity
in its south; pockets of deprivation in Peckham and
Walworth; ethnic diversity throughout; part of the
cultural heart of London on its riverside, and, in Tate
Modern, its Jubilee Line stations and Peckham Library,
modern buildings of international importance.
