Backed by proven business leadership, strong systems, and national brand support, DroneBoss is designed to help franchise partners build scalable, well-structured businesses with long-term growth potential.

With growing demand across agriculture, infrastructure, surveying, inspections, and specialist commercial services, DroneBoss provides franchise partners with proven operating systems, marketing support, compliance guidance, and ongoing mentorship to help them succeed from day one.

Rather than operating independently, partners become part of a recognised national brand focused on professionalism, operational consistency, and sustainable growth. With structured support and exclusive territories, DroneBoss offers the opportunity to build a substantial business in a future-focused industry.

Founders Profile

DroneBoss was founded by Craig Simpson and Murray Belz, combining extensive experience in business development, franchise systems, compliance-led industries, and national brand growth.

Craig Simpson has built and grown multiple successful New Zealand businesses, including GridFree, Aerolab, and DroneTrust. Through these ventures, he has developed significant expertise in regulated industries, scalable operating systems, and commercial business growth within the drone sector.

Murray Belz is the founder of Mastercraft, one of New Zealand’s established national trade services networks. He built the organisation from the ground up, developing the systems, governance, and operational structure required to support a successful nationwide brand.

Together, Craig and Murray created DroneBoss to provide franchise partners with the structure, leadership, and support needed to build professional drone service businesses with genuine long-term potential.
