How Much
As a guide the money required to open a PACK & SEND store in the UK is in the region of between £85,000 and £130,000 (including working capital) of which franchisees would need to have at least 30% - 50% as liquid funds.
A franchisee will therefore need a minimum of £30,000 to £60,000 in liquid funds. The balance can be raised through a bank loan and PACK & SEND franchisees enjoy favorable lending terms with our banking partners.
Broadly the cost of opening the store is £85,000 with the balance of the money required to cover a franchisee's working capital and drawings until such time that the business is generating enough cash to cover its financial commitments.
The absolute cost to a franchisee of opening the store will be influenced by such things as where in the country it is as rents vary from town to town, the level of rent deposit required by the landlord and whether or not the unit needs preparatory work prior to being fitted out.
That said the minimum is unlikely to be less than £85,000 and the maximum, if the business is operated successfully, should not be more than £130,000.
