Established Franchises - Business for Sale Details

FRANCHISED OVERNIGHT PARCELS CARRIER - £ 95,000

Overview of the Business:

Turner Butler are delighted to be appointed as sole selling agents for this exciting business opportunity which has never been brought to the market for sale before. This Parcels Carrier Franchise came to market in 1999, and the Principal of this company bought the regional franchise for Northamptonshire in 2004. With full national franchised network coverage, the company offers an overnight parcels delivery service with a difference. The Director has led the development of the business from the front, with great drive and enthusiasm. From the outset the company has applied a “One Stop Shop” mentality to their service package and, due to their system of manual parcel handling and management, are able to offer the same overnight service to their customers as the major national carriers plus the ability to handle and deliver awkwardly sized and fragile items which will not fit in to the automated machinery framework operated by the majors. The company is also licensed to carry chemicals up to Class 3 category. The company currently operates from monthly rental warehouse premises nicely central to the NN postcode, but the business could be moved anywhere within this very large postcode area if required.

Property Features and Assets:

The company currently operates from an industrial unit of approximately 1,200 square feet, situated in a large commercially developed area of many more similar units, which itself is surrounded by a large and heavily commercialised area of much larger factory, office and warehouse units. The property enjoys the benefit of a large communal car park in front, which is beneficial when several lorries and vans are to be loaded at similar times. The premises are currently subject to an informal monthly rental agreement and therefore allows the flexibility of relocation within the NN postcode if required. Current annual rental comes in at approximately £9,500, with rates coming in at approx. £1,350 per annum.

Market Competition and Expansion:

The Franchisor has developed an attractive, informative and easy to navigate Internet Website which is used for the collective benefit of the franchised network and their customers. Other than this, no other marketing or advertising has been utilised thus far in the businesses development, and this may be seen by a new owner as an area of great development opportunity and benefit to the future of the company.
