SUPPORT FOR FRANCHISEES
Once you qualify and become a SafeWay Driving franchisee, we dedicate considerable effort to teaching you the SafeWay Driving system. Because the success of your franchise is mainly dependent on how well you follow our system, we are committed to you every step of the way. Our proven system of operation will give you the edge necessary to create a thriving business.
PRICED BY CAR
SafeWay Driving Franchises are priced by the number of cars required to process the full potential of the School Zone (market area). SafeWay Administration predetermines the number of cars by considering factors such as the population of the school, private schools located in the School Zone, existing competition, and demographics. And there is no additional franchise fee charged for car growth beyond the original School Zone size.

THE ROAD TO YOU SAFEWAY FRANCHISE

This process is a two-way qualification process that we take very seriously. We have mapped the qualification process out in "The Road to Your SafeWay Franchise." Download today to get on the road.

Your role as a franchisee and strategic-partner of SafeWay Driving is divided into three main areas:
THE FRANCHISEE ROLE
COMMUNITY
The franchisees' primary role in the business model is that of a community advocate or marketer, connecting with key influencers in their School Zone, such as schools, churches, and businesses, to increase awareness among neighborhood families of their franchise and help drive customers to the business.
INSTRUCTION
The franchisees' secondary role is to focus on hiring people to train into high-quality instructors and ensuring they execute instruction according to the SafeWay Driving System. Each of these instructors will be trained through SafeWay University and start with all the skills necessary to succeed.
EXECUTION
Successful execution of any franchise business requires following the system. At SafeWay Driving, that means partnering with our team of professionals, following the SafeWay Driving Operations Manual, and diligently utilizing our web-based operating system.
