Invest in the Future of Social Entertainment with Bounce - The Ultimate Competitive Socialising Franchise
Ready to serve up success? Bounce has pioneered the creation of the UK’s competitive socialising industry, blending ping pong, cutting-edge technology, and vibrant hospitality to create a high-energy, high-profit business opportunity. With a market worth £134bn and rapidly growing, now is the time to bring Bounce to your city and capitalise on this exciting trend.
In addition, we now have a Joint Venture (JV) opportunity for a high footfall ground floor venue in Central London, requiring only £1 million investment from a JV partner. Bounce will operate and leverage its existing customer base. The JV allows investors to partner with Bounce in a market they are well established in and can also be the perfect stepping stone to a wider investment or franchise.
