Squire Group joins BFA as franchise sector growth continues

LEICESTER, UK – May 29, 2026 – Squire Group has officially joined the British Franchise Association, further strengthening its involvement in the UK franchise industry.

The Leicester-headquartered company supplies fire safety, compliance, CCTV and intruder alarm services to businesses operating across multiple premises nationwide.

Its latest milestone reflects a broader push into the franchise market, where operators increasingly require reliable oversight and consistency between locations.

“Franchise operators need dependable partners who understand the challenges they face. Our aim is to provide joined-up fire, security and compliance services, alongside technology that allows users to access systems from their phones wherever they are,” said Jacob Squire, Digital Strategist at Squire Group.

Franchise businesses regularly face pressures around compliance management, security standards and maintaining operational continuity across their networks.

According to Squire Group, its service structure has been developed to support those needs through a combined offering covering installation, maintenance and long-term support.

The company also noted a rise in demand for integrated systems that can be monitored remotely.

Its technology platform enables approved users to view CCTV feeds, manage intruder alarms and monitor fire systems directly from smartphone devices, helping operators stay connected to sites even when off location.

The UK franchise sector remains an important part of the national business environment, with brands spanning hospitality, retail, care, fitness and professional services.

Squire Group added that BFA membership will create opportunities to work more closely with franchise brands and sector stakeholders while increasing visibility within the industry.

By combining sector knowledge with its BFA affiliation, the company intends to establish itself as a trusted nationwide partner for franchise security and compliance services.
