“The commercial returns of a Speedy Freight Franchise would rival some of the largest Franchised systems in the UK……as one of the 6 BFA Franchisor of the Year finalists, Speedy Freight has once more been setting the standards in the Franchise sector.”

Our Franchises can scale up without significantly increasing costs

and have low overheads for the following reasons:

They are asset light as they don’t operate their own fleet or employ drivers

They have no need for expensive machinery or high street premises

They have minimal staff costs as an overall % of the branch sales

The Speedy Freight Franchise offers both virgin and resale businesses within the UK Same Day and Express Freight industry, each with their own exclusive marketing territory, defined by postcode.

Our rigorous training program, supportive onboarding, peer assistance (including the Franchise Representative Council) and straightforward sales process, combined with a high proportion of return business, ensure fast business growth is easily achievable from day one.

We see hardworking, dedicated Franchisees typically recoup the cost of investment in year one and see a profit from month one*.
