Your fresh produce boxes will also be as plastic-free as possible – no pointless wrapping of items like you see in the supermarkets.

Create a secure repeating monthly income from a mix of subscriptions and cash sales, all managed through our App stack that handle almost all the admin for you, from customer orders to route planning, to reporting and bookkeeping.
Simply give people a bit of time and your attention – they just don’t expect it these days! Happy customers refer colleagues, friends and family, it’s a self-growing business where people want you to succeed.
What will I be doing?
It’s a simple weekly cycle, that builds with your commitment and reputation. There are three main areas to your role, prepping, selling at markets and delivering boxes. You won’t be driving your van all day every day, there’s a REAL mix of activities keeping it ‘fresh’! And you are in control of your time and set your schedule.
- Start off working in the business, learn it all
- Grow your customer base by following our proven model
- We’ll help you as you scale up with your own small loyal team
- Then you’ll be managing your business, enjoying a proper work/life balance
- Your role changes over time and at your pace, everyone’s different
- And we’ll be right there with you throughout your business journey
Work from your home with an allocated room setup for sorting and occasional storage of your produce. You’ll typically only hold a small amount of stock at the weekend to avoid any wastage at all. A garage, garden building or small unit can work too…

How much do I need to get going?
To start your new business with The Fruit & Veg Man franchise you will need at least £18,995 to invest. Low-rate funding* is available (subject to status) from the government-backed ‘British Business Bank’, or the franchise units of the major High Street Banks.
Once established in your area you can realistically create earnings of c.£50-£60k per year, and at this point you may want to scale up with more people and vehicles, moving to become a manager of your business, which should now have a value for you to sell on in the future.
Following Sanjay, Hannah and the other franchisees’ proven route to success massively reduces both the risk and cost for you – we’ve made the mistakes, so you don’t have to!
We’ll map your journey with you in your own business plan. All you’ll need to do is follow it, act on the guidance from our experienced team and get out there with enthusiasm. You’ll have a solid repeating income in a matter of months, maybe even quicker if you really go for it….
Happy people
“All the produce is great quality and well-priced, which customers love – combined with a bit of friendly banter of course! A local person serving with a smile and making time for a chat goes a really long way these days – people aren’t used to it. The business grows because people want it to.“
Richard – Franchisee in Manchester
“I’ve just started and it is such a joy working with the team, chatting to others in the network. The marketing works and it’s super rewarding – if you are thinking about it, stop thinking and just do it….”
Demi – Franchisee in Northamptonshire
“While its hard work, I’ve had so much fun, it’s so fulfilling. I’m now at the stage of growing my business, getting some more employees and some more vehicles on the road – I’m going big…”
Andrew – Franchisee in South Buckinghamshire
