Are you thinking of starting your own business, enjoy the challenge and are excited about working in the adventure and experience industry? Upzone Äventyrsparker, one of Sweden’s leading companies in High Ropes Courses, is looking for franchisees and you can become one of us!
Upzone Adventure Parks are currently located in Borås, Gällö, Göteborg, Kalmar, Oxelösund, Stockholm Skövde, Ängelholm and Åhus. We have high ropes courses of up to 18 meters with exciting challenges among the treetops. With several different courses in each park at different heights and levels of difficulty, everyone can find their challenge, whether it is in our lowest and easiest course or in our highest and most challenging. Our guests can climb nets, balance on ropes, throw themselves into freefall or climb through a tunnel, always under the watchful eye of our experienced instructors.
In addition to high ropes courses, we also have activities for large and small groups, such as Escape Game, Combat Archery Tag and Team Battle. We also work with companies so we can offer canoe rentals and Stand-Up Paddle Boards. Read more about all our experiences here.
Our vision is to be the leading company in the experience and adventure industry in the Nordic region. We want as many guests as possible to receive the best service from us and feel safe and personally treated during their experiences. We also work constantly to have the safest facilities, to create and maintain the highest level of, and be at the forefront of development when it comes to safety – we want to be the role model for other companies in the industry. Therefore, Upzone not only works with running its own parks and franchise parks, but we are also members of the International Adventure Park Association (IAPA) and are one of three training centres within IAPA.
The foundation of the company consists of a driven and committed staff, who want to maintain a high level of experience for our guests and have a desire to constantly develop and become better. A mentality that permeates the entire company from the management team to the instructors in the park.
You must believe in our business concept and in us if you are to succeed and thrive within the Upzone chain. You must also have a strong desire to start your own and the will to make a wholehearted effort. Starting your own business is exciting but hard work – especially in the beginning. You must feel committed to our concept and you must not be afraid of heights. You should be physically fit and prepared to work actively in the park yourself. You are ambitious, energetic and you believe in yourself.
In addition, you have a will to develop and keep the minimum bar high within what you do. You are prepared for the fact that it is hard work to start your own business and that it can take time before you reach a stable profitability. You are positive and easy to get along with people around you. You have an orderly finance and a start-up capital. You know that starting your own business is a big step and your family must be positive and supportive of your decision.
