The Oscar Pet Food Franchise Opportunity
Why Oscar?
We're a family business that started life making good honest pet food for working dogs and supermarkets. It was a fantastic start with formulations for Sainsbury's and Linda McCartney. However, we found that customers had little guidance on what to feed their pets. Choosing the right food was a minefield and the level of service seemed non-existent. Getting it right was so important because, just like humans, pets 'are what they eat'.
We have always believed that when it comes to nutrition it's too important to settle for second best. In 1993, we took matters into our own hands and the first Oscar franchise was established. The Complete Pet Care Service was born and since then Oscar has kept a firm focus on the developments in pet food manufacturing, while devoting time to its growing franchise network.
 Our founder Martin Dancy (BSc Animal Nutrition) owned the original Oscar. Oscar, the Great Dane, was our proud mascot and many people will remember him as a friendly addition to the company.
Experts in Pet Nutrition
We discovered that a local Oscar Nutritional Advisor is the best person to give friendly, expert advice. Whether the pet is fat or thin, young or old, healthy, has allergies or is generally tearing the place apart, Oscar can help. Our aim is to make life easier for pet owners across the UK.
Repeat Business
Oscar customers are delighted with our service and remain loyal, often referring friends and family.
Be Your Own Boss
Our unique business system continues to build on years of success, offering individuals the freedom to run their own business and benefit from a lifestyle dedicated to working with pets to deliver a happier, healthier and longer life.
Free Home Delivery
Convenience defines the unique Oscar opportunity. Our friendly customer service includes free home delivery, a free meal (sampled in the home), a quality competitive brand (no middle man) as well as nutritional and behavioural advice. It's what makes our tried and tested formula a winner.
Success Breeds Success
With a wealth of experience in the Oscar network we are continually improving the system. One of our first ideas was to offer a Freephone Helpline to ensure that every Oscar pet had a personal Nutritional Advisor to assist with the right diet - and that was only the beginning....
Anyone can apply - from bank managers, accountants, teachers and manual workers to farmers wishing to diversify. For those retiring from HM Forces to Police or IT workers - ideal for veterinary nurses or carers and many more. They have all become Oscar franchisees.

CASE STUDIES
Sue Watkins - Baltonsborough, Glastonbury
February 2005
My voluntary work for Greyhound rescue set the scene for my future, although working on the front desk at the local police station taught me all I needed to know about dealing with people. I wanted to bring a better balance to my life, and having five dogs, all in need of love and attention, led me to Oscar and the idea of working for myself.
Searching the web site strengthened my desire to become self-employed and by learning from other people's experiences confirmed that it was now time to be my own boss. Oscar's quality products helped make up my mind and I intend to involve my family of pets to promote the business, especially when it comes to displaying prime examples of a good diet.
Kevin and Stephanie Darnell - Dunvant, Swansea
September 2003
After fifteen years of working in a factory environment I was ready for a change, and
self-employment through franchising seemed to be the best way forward. I knew very little about franchising and therefore searched the Internet and the British Franchise Exhibition at the NEC before making any decisions. With so many opportunities to look at I found myself drawn to the family-orientated situation at Oscar, and having two cats also provided a link. My wife helps me on a part-time basis and our aim is to be successful and happy.
