A brand new business launches today, sickness offering a unique and ethical approach guaranteed to make it stand out from the rest.
TwoCan property sales and lettings agency is the latest ethical venture for the Two Rivers Housing Group, price gifting all its profit to support the work of the local housing charity.
Add to this a commitment to ‘green’ working practices through digital solutions, low emissions vehicles, flexible and agile working practices to reduce the miles travelled by staff and the absence of a high street presence, TwoCan certainly intends to mix things up in the industry.
“This was the most natural business opportunity for Two Rivers to develop, as an experienced landlord with strong community values,” explained Gerry McFall, Managing Director of the new subsidiary.
“TwoCan will operate by those same values and, when that combines with the 70 years’ estate agency experience of the team, our clients can trust they will receive a professional service, delivered with honesty and integrity, whilst supporting a well-established charity.”
TwoCan is the second business enterprise* set up by Two Rivers Housing. Both reflect the values of their parent housing association and are creating jobs and training opportunities.
Their primary purpose is to generate fresh sources of income to replace reduced government funds. This money will allow the not-for-profit housing provider to continue providing affordable homes and community amenities for those who need them, for many years to come.
“This is such an exciting venture,” said TwoCan’s manager Simon Cawley. “We have a team with an excellent track record, a bright, fresh and distinctive image, strong professional values and an opportunity to do things well, but differently.
“Our customers will clearly benefit from this, and we know our success will help the people our parent organisation seeks to support for generations to come – and that’s a really powerful motivator.”
Simon is joined by Senior Negotiators Danielle O’Brien and Andrew Heard, who bring experience of working throughout the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire and Herefordshire.
TwoCan is based at the Two Rivers Housing office in Newent, where the team will be able to call upon the support of many other relevant business experts.
