Fast-growing Welsh broker Moorhouse has launched Moorhouse Enterprise, which will enable individuals start up their own commercial brokerages.
Moorhouse Enterprise, a subsidiary company of the Moorhouse Group, will provide a range of facilities offering comprehensive support, for individuals and teams, to help overcome the difficulties associated with establishing a new business.
The move follows the recent intense period of consolidation in the UK, which has caused many individuals within these new enlarged groups to feel disaffected. Moorhouse Enterprise aims to help those that are frustrated within acquired firms, and others who have the desire to set up their own businesses, overcome the barriers to entry.
Start-ups will operate as appointed representatives of Moorhouse and support will be available in the following areas:
- Compliance
- Marketing (including online)
- Agencies
- Products and schemes
- Systems
- Trading website and technology
- Head office functions
Chairman Lyndon Wood said: “There are currently many people within acquired firms who have been through all the upheaval but seen no direct benefit to them whatsoever. Many have the drive and the aptitude to succeed on their own but, because of the obstacles that must be overcome, plus the general sense of economic doom and gloom at the moment, many are staying put.
“This is why the time is right for a vehicle to help budding entrepreneurs get started. Their frustration is part of the hangover from consolidation but out of it will emerge the next generation of entrepreneurs and Moorhouse Enterprise hopes to help many realise their ambitions.”
