W.S. BADCOCK Corp. offers dealership opportunities to qualified individuals. Dealerships are similar to franchises in that they are individually owned and operated, but require less capital (no franchise fee or monthly royalty fees) and allow for a quicker start-up than a traditional franchise. BADCOCK provides all stores with total inventory at no cost to the dealer and all account financing through the parent company.
