LOCAL Jo Jingles children's music and movement franchisee Ollie Quinn has been awarded the 'Irish Franchisee of the Year Award' for her outstanding achievement with her business at the company's recent Annual National Conference.
Ollie originally launched her franchise in 2006 and was rewarded by her franchisor for her success in growing music classes in Lurgan, Portadown and Dungannon. More than 150 children regularly attend her current classes
Ollie was singled out from
over 100 Jo Jingles franchisees across the country for this award, for providing and managing a high quality service.
Ollie, who has two children, has also developed strong links with third party organisations including local nurseries, schools and SureStart, the government funded children's initiative.
She has given presentations to local parenting groups and health visitors on the benefits of musical education for babies and young children and has recently taken on a class teacher to help develop her business further.
Gill commented: "We are delighted with Ollie's continued success. She is an excellent example of how franchising provides an ideal opportunity to develop your own business with having your own family. "
Ollie said: "I'm thrilled to receive this recognition for my work and am grateful to the families who have shared this fun journey with me.
"Whilst I am grateful for this award what is equally important to me are the comments I receive from people who have experienced our classes and sessions."
Ollie is now looking to further expand classes in the local area to meet the growing demand for places.
