BarberShopCo : From Junior Barber to Store Owner With BarbershopCo

This testimonial video brings together two BarbershopCo voices to show the career ladder inside the New Zealand men's grooming brand. The clip is filmed across more than one BarbershopCo location and presents the franchise from both a newer franchisee and a long-tenured store owner's perspective. The first speaker has spent fourteen years in the barbering industry before moving across to BarbershopCo. She describes the energy of the workplace — a team aligned on customer service, music playing, clients leaving happy and coming back. The video also captures her view that the brand's intern program offers a real route to store ownership for someone serious about the craft. Matt, a multi-store owner who appears later in the clip, brings a twenty-five-year industry background. He currently owns multiple BarbershopCo sites, including the Downtown and Elsie locations. He explains how partnering with BarbershopCo helped him expand quickly and fulfilled a long-held goal of owning more than one shop, with the franchise team taking on much of the heavy lifting required to open new sites. For both speakers, the appeal of BarbershopCo runs beyond a single career step. The brand's structure supports progression from junior barber to master barber to store owner, and the video positions that ladder as one of its core differentiators. The clip closes on the message that BarbershopCo offers a credible way to earn a living, build a secure future, and have fun at work, backed by an established support system.
