Quik Internet Franchises Open To Improve Internet Services Throughout New Zealand Quik International, the world's
largest Internet service franchisor, today announced three new Internet Service Provider (ISP) franchises to improve the
quality of Internet services throughout New Zealand. The franchises were established through the company's Master
Franchise, Quik Internet New Zealand (NZ).
Quik Internet NZ provides Internet services to residents and businesses by franchising ISPs in local communities. The
three new Quik Internet ISPs are located in these areas, Auckland Central, Auckland North Shore and Manawatu.
While the Manawatu and North Shore operations introduce two new businessmen to the Quik network, the Auckland Central
territory has been purchased by Robert Broadbridge, managing director of Quik Internet Auckland East.
"The network and solid franchise model provided by Quik has made my first Quik Internet franchise in Auckland East a
great success," said Broadbridge, "It was a natural transition to acquire another territory and open Quik Internet
Auckland Central."
