About PACK & SEND:

Launched in Australia over 30 years ago, PACK and SEND allows its franchise partners to build highly successful, profitable businesses.

The top performing PACK & SEND centres generate annual turnovers of almost £800,000, benefitting from high gross margins in excess of 65% with high average transaction values and strong annual growth as their businesses win a constant stream of new customers on top of the ever-growing base of repeat customers.

PACK & SEND has a unique company profile and position within the multibillion-pound logistics industry. They specialise in packing and shipping large, fragile, valuable, or awkwardly shaped items that other courier suppliers and freight companies are typically not equipped to deal with.

The first UK PACK & SEND service centre opened in 2009, and the business has grown every year; they’ve worked closely with their franchise partners to hone their business and reach new heights of success.

Their pursuit of this growing niche market means a significant proportion of their business comes from referrals from other carriers who do not have the infrastructure to provide personalised packaging and freight solutions in the same way that PACK & SEND can.

Other Information

Support & training:

In addition to access to all the benefits of the business model, the initial part of your PACK & SEND journey will involve a comprehensive training programme and ongoing support thereafter.

The training is an in-depth induction to you and your team through an eight-week programme. You will be given both classroom and on-site training that familiarises you with the freight industry, packaging techniques, our accounting and operating systems, and successful marketing techniques, so your entire team are experts in the business before your doors open.

When you’re ready to launch, an expert will join you and your team in your PACK & SEND service centre for the first month. They won’t run the business for you but they’ll be on hand so you can get up to speed on maximising sales and customer satisfaction.

We'll help you plan your marketing and sales strategy – it’s important to prepare your business launch in advance of the service centre opening, including your marketing and sales strategies; we can advise you on the best way to do this.

PACK & SEND also offers two guarantees to franchisees:

Year 1 brand lead guarantee – PACK & SEND guarantees a defined number of leads with the opportunity to secure longterm repeat customers
Year 1 marketing support guarantee – whatever you spend on marketing, PACK & SEND will match it (up to a maximum of £6,000).

Financing available:: Financing can usually be sourced via the main high street banks with lenders usually prepared to consider a loan of up to 70% of the total investment, and PACK & SEND franchise partners enjoy positive lending terms with our banking partners.
