Your Opportunity
Enhance lives and build relationships with your customers and your community.
It’s a People (and Bird) Business
Our franchisees say that interacting with customers is one of the most rewarding aspects of owning a Wild Birds Unlimited store. You make a difference in your customers’ lives by helping connect them with birds and nature. Customers tell us that they come back time and again because they value the relationship as much as the expert hobby knowledge and top-quality products. You can’t buy that type of loyalty.
Products Designed by Experts
We understand that folks have options when purchasing bird feeders and other hobby products. They shop Wild Birds Unlimited because our products are designed by experts to
meet the needs of the birds and to be enjoyable
for the people who use them.
Trusted Local Advice
A common theme among our franchisees is their interest and love of birds and nature. You and your staff will serve the community by providing the best local advice on how to enjoy the hobby, which differentiates you from big-box stores and other competitors.
Our Partners in Nature
We have developed partnerships with organizations that support our core mission of bringing people and nature together. These partnerships offer the opportunity to learn more about wild birds, and to actively participate in conservation efforts and citizen-science projects.
Support
People, Products, Presentation and the tools to Manage it all.
An Award Winning System
Our mission statement, “We Bring People and Nature Together” is just the beginning. When it comes to supporting our franchise store owners, we add the phrase, “…and We Do It with Excellence.”
Over the past two decades, Wild Birds Unlimited, Inc. has received many awards and has been recognized by the likes of Entrepreneur Magazine, Franchise Business Review and USA Today. It’s enough to make us blush (and our moms proud).
