Bedstop was founded in 2003 in conjunction with Furniture Court NZ Ltd as a bedding offer for those stores needing a bedding specialist.
Bedstop is now owned by the original members of Bedstop when they purchased the franchise from Furniture Court in September 2009 along with the rights to operate Bedstop and its intellectual property. They have over 30 years of successful experience in the bedding and furniture industry as both owner-operators and directors. A new company called Bedstop NZ Ltd was formed at this time. Through this members have access to a number of "Preferred Suppliers" with whom they have formed close working relationships over a large number of years.
We are now in a position to offer to selected, privately owned retailers and prospective franchisees "Bedstop Franchises" throughout New Zealand. We believe the benefits to those selected will enhance their trading and business opportunities, creating financial advantages over other bedding specialists stores.
New Franchisees do not need to be previously involved in the bedding industry as training will be provided.
We offer means, systems, and support that we have used to ensure the success of our own ‘Bedding Specialist’ stores. By introducing systems that incorporate a means of selling, purchasing and displaying a “story” that we believe will give you a distinct advantage, over other competitors.
