A home-based B2B sales franchise helping local businesses save money on their shipping

No vans. No deliveries. No warehouse.

Build a recurring-income business with realistic £100k–£300k earning potential. You find and manage the customers; Speedy Parcels runs the logistics.

A business where you ARE…

  • Meeting local businesses
  • Helping them reduce shipping costs
  • Building recurring monthly revenue
  • Becoming their trusted local shipping partner

You are NOT…

  • Delivering parcels
  • Managing drivers
  • Running a depot
  • Operating a route

The opportunity

Online selling is a daily, high-volume activity. Every eBay seller, Etsy trader, Shopify brand and TikTok Shop needs to ship, and many are paying too much because they cannot access the rates that larger businesses enjoy.

That is your competitive edge. Speedy Parcels’ buying power gives you access to deeply discounted rates from major national carriers. You offer customers savings they could not negotiate alone. They stay loyal, and you make a margin on every parcel they send.

Your target customers: small online sellers sending 5–50 parcels a day. There are hundreds of thousands of them in the UK, and every one is a potential account.

90–95% retention rate on small-business clients

Once you win a customer, they keep shipping every day. That makes your income genuinely recurring and compounding, rather than reliant on constantly finding new sales.

This is for you if…

  • You are a natural relationship-builder
  • You want income that compounds as your business grows
  • You are comfortable going out and finding your own customers
  • You have worked in a customer-facing role and value great service

This is not for you if…

  • You prefer a desk job
  • You want the franchisor to supply your customers
  • You want a hands-off investment
  • You are uncomfortable with face-to-face B2B selling
  • You want to manage drivers, vans or logistics operations

The day-to-day role

Your days are spent out in your territory, meeting and managing customers:

  • Visiting home offices, shops, units and garages to meet small online sellers
  • Having confident conversations about their current shipping costs and frustrations
  • Presenting Speedy Parcels’ rates and the savings on offer
  • Onboarding new customers and setting up their shipping technology so they can book instantly
  • Following up, nurturing relationships and growing parcel volume
  • Watching your recurring income build as your portfolio expands

You do not need logistics experience: this is about selling and relationship-building, not moving parcels.

“Having spent my career in the parcel and logistics industry, including helping build the Speedy Parcels franchise network, I had a unique view of the business before becoming a franchisee. I knew the numbers, the model and the challenges, which gave me complete confidence in my decision. The support has been practical, the systems are proven, and now every customer I win is building an asset of my own. If you are prepared to put the work into sales, it is an outstanding opportunity.”

Peter, Franchisee

How the model works

Low overheads, high retention: you do not need vans, a warehouse, premises or staff to start. Because Speedy Parcels can handle almost anything — standard parcels, long lengths, heavy goods, international shipments and “ugly freight” — you can say yes to more customers than the competition.

You handle…

  • Visit and win small online sellers
  • Build rapport and understand their needs
  • Offer competitive shipping solutions using our buying power
  • Set up their technology so they can ship instantly
  • Grow parcel volume month on month

We handle…

  • Carrier management and operational logistics
  • All customer support and issue resolution
  • Our proprietary technology platform
  • Invoicing and the majority of administration
  • Monthly marketing campaigns and ongoing tools

Earnings potential

Invest £5,000 cash plus a £25,000 government-backed Start Up Loan, and build towards:

Stage Parcel volume Potential income
Year 1 50–100 per day Up to £3,000 per month
Scaling 500 per day £100,000 take-home
Established 1,500 per day £300,000 take-home

Every parcel means margin. Every day, every week. Because customers ship daily, your income becomes predictable, recurring and compounding. Once you build your base, it can snowball.

These figures are not guarantees, but they are based on real data and demonstrate the potential in a sector driven by ongoing demand and recurring daily volume.

“Becoming a Speedy Parcels franchisee has given me the flexibility to work around my family while building a valuable business for my future. I joined the franchise with no background in logistics, so naturally I was nervous at first. The training broke everything down into simple, practical steps, the ongoing support has been outstanding and within weeks I was winning customers. It is hard work, but the rewards are well worth it.”

Jay, Franchisee

A personal growth journey as well as a business

Franchisees are not numbers, and this is not a corporate culture. You will know the people behind HQ, and they will know you. Speedy Parcels is:

This is genuine mentorship, not token support. You will be coached by people who have walked the walk, helping you grow faster, avoid mistakes and get results sooner.

You get access to senior leaders who have:

  • Built national logistics networks
  • Managed major carrier relationships
  • Scaled courier and freight businesses
  • Lived and breathed this industry for years
