At De Drie Notenboomen, we consciously choose the principle of franchising to market our care concepts. Franchising offers the opportunity to replicate a specific concept, with the added benefit of having it driven by independent entrepreneurs. This creates greater dedication and commitment from the 'ambassadors' of your concept, which translates into a personal approach and the delivery of tailored care.

When entrepreneurs wish to start a business within one of our care concepts, we enter into a 5-year franchise agreement. By signing this agreement, a franchisee agrees to the vision and philosophy behind the care concept, the conditions that ensure, for example, that a Thomashuis can be called a Thomashuis, and the agreements defining the relationship between franchisee and franchisor.

As a franchise organisation, De Drie Notenboomen develops a network of small-scale residential facilities for various target groups with care needs. In our four concepts – Thomashuis, Herbergier, Zorgbutler, and Thomas Op Kamers – care and living for specific target groups go hand in hand.
