High-Potential Courier Franchise - West Central London
Business Overview
A franchisor-owned, same-day logistics franchise in West Central London is now available, covering the WC postcode area and its 114,460 potential business customers. Currently operated by the franchisor as part of a respected national network, the business generated turnover of £75,517 in the financial year ending 2024, providing a clear trading track record in one of London’s most valuable commercial locations. The model is asset light and management focused, using subcontracted vehicles rather than an owned fleet, with central systems in place for operations, billing and support. The territory includes a dense mix of professional services, media, education, healthcare, hospitality and retail organisations, all with regular needs for urgent and time-critical deliveries. As a franchisor-owned operation, local sales activity and account development to date have been relatively modest, meaning current revenue represents a starting platform rather than the limit of what the area can deliver. For a commercially minded owner with the drive to build relationships and develop new accounts, this opportunity offers very substantial potential to scale turnover and create a significant logistics business in the heart of London.
