The Opportunity
PACK & SEND Mackay offers a proven, systemised franchise model in the freight, logistics and specialty packaging sector, servicing both retail and commercial customers across the Mackay region. Trading under a long-standing national franchise brand established in 1993, the business benefits from proven systems, supplier relationships, freight partnerships and head-office marketing support - meaning a new owner isn't starting from scratch, but stepping into a business that already works.
With lean staffing, manageable trading hours, and no after-hours evening work, this is an easy business to run day-to-day, whether hands-on or with the support of your part-time team member. It's an ideal fit for an owner-operator seeking a straightforward, well-supported small business with strong earnings relative to the effort involved and growth potential.
What's On Offer
The business provides an end-to-end freight, logistics and packaging service for residential, business and e-commerce customers, including:
- Domestic and international freight and courier bookings
- Custom packaging and crating for fragile, oversized and high-value items
- E-commerce fulfilment and shipping solutions for online sellers
- Specialised transport for machinery, artwork, antiques, motorbikes and more
- Personal effects, relocation and interstate removalist shipments
- Retail sale of packaging materials and shipping supplies
Why Buy This Business
Mackay's regional, resource-sector and coastal communities provide a strong, diverse customer base, with the store conveniently positioned for retail walk-ins and commercial pick-ups alike. Revenue is drawn from multiple streams - freight and courier bookings, packaging and crating, e-commerce fulfilment and retail sales - giving the business resilience beyond any single income source.
There's clear scope for a new owner to grow the business further through expanding commercial accounts, deepening relationships with local builders, resorts, retailers and online sellers, and modernising local marketing (project photo galleries, Google Business optimisation and consistent customer reviews).
Franchise Support
As a PACK & SEND franchisee, the new owner will receive full training and ongoing support from the franchisor, along with the benefit of an established national brand, marketing support and an existing carrier network - reducing the learning curve for a new owner and supporting a smooth transition.
Don't Miss This Opportunity
With the current owner ready to retire, this is a rare chance to acquire an established, easy-to-run franchise business with a loyal customer base, strong recent earnings and genuine room to grow.
