Fully describe the business's activities?

Granolithic tombstones originate in the USA and have become very popular. The franchise has been manufacturing Granolithic tombstones locally for the last 10 years, and supplying it to clients via its own shops. Its growth has accelerated to the point where there is a national demand, and the company has elected to service this demand via franchised outlets. This franchised outlet has been in operation for 5 years. Being a franchisee means the buyer will be supplied with everything necessary to trade, including amongst other things, furniture, computers, business cards and pamphlets, signage, branded uniforms and stock. There are three factories around SA to service our retail franchises.

Granolithic tombstones are three times thicker than granite giving it a much bigger impressive look at a fraction of the price of granite hence giving a competitive edge.
