Why Choose an LRC Franchise?
Cutting-Edge Technology
You’ll gain exclusive access to our advanced Colour Scanner System, making colour-matching faster, more accurate, and easier than any other system available. This technology allows you to provide perfect, OEM-grade results—whether working with luxury automotive interiors, high-end furniture, or designer fashion items.
Professional-Grade Products
LRC products are OEM-matchable, water-based, biodegradable, and carbon-reducing—ideal for today's eco-conscious customers. We guarantee non-sticky surfaces and authentic matte or satin finishes, with colours that meet the highest standards of the automotive and furniture industries.
World-Class Training
Our training is widely considered the most in-depth and comprehensive in the world—often imitated but never matched. You’ll receive hands-on, practical knowledge in leather cleaning, repairs, recolouring, restoration, and protection, plus ongoing upskilling as new methods and materials are introduced.
Exclusive Franchise Network
As an LRC franchisee, you’re guaranteed territorial exclusivity—no internal competition, no crossover. Your area is protected, giving you the freedom to grow with confidence, backed by national and global marketing campaigns and a head office team committed to your success.
High-Profit, Low-Risk
An LRC franchise is not only affordable but designed to be highly profitable. Many of our franchisees earn in excess of £50,000 per year, even when operating part-time. The beauty of our system is its flexibility—it can grow with your ambition, whether you’re starting small or aiming to build a multi-van operation or fixed studio.
What Makes LRC Recession-Proof?
Unlike many other industries, leather repair is always in demand. Whether it’s car interiors, home furnishings, aviation seats, handbags or jackets—leather is everywhere, and people are choosing to restore rather than replace. During tough economic times, this becomes even more relevant.
Plus, as sustainability continues to dominate consumer behaviour, LRC’s eco-conscious products and ethos put you ahead of the curve. This is an industry that doesn’t go backwards—it evolves, grows, and innovates continually.
You’re in Business for Yourself – But Never by Yourself
We don’t just train you and leave you. Our head office team provides ongoing support, technical advice, marketing assets, and business development coaching. Whether you're on the road, working from home, or operating a full workshop, you're always part of the LRC family.
We are proud members of major industry associations and have a network built on trust, professionalism, and long-term relationships.
