PACK & SEND Franchise Revenue Streams
PACK & SEND’s unique multi-channel business model enables you to earn revenue through both active and residual income streams. Active income streams is the income you receive when you actively participate in the work to provide the service from your service centre. In contrast, residual income is cash flow received on a regular basis that requires minimal effort to maintain it and is primarily derived from PACK & SEND’s technology and ecommerce solutions.

Micro-Fulfillment Services
With the eCommerce boom, more and more business are outsourcing their product fulfillment. A consequence of this growing demand is that a large proportion of PACK & SEND Service Centres hold stock for such customers offering a pick, pack and delivery service. Our PACK & SEND Live software includes micro-fulfillment capabilities. Micro-fulfillment is the concept of a network of small format fulfillment facilities in accessible urban locations that are close to the end-consumer, where consumers can have their items delivered in as little as one hour after they place an online order. Under PACK & SEND’s micro-fulfillment solution national customers will also be able to understand their inventory in real time across the PACK & SEND network, have the capability to transfer stock between PACK & SEND locations and optimise their order processing – all from PACK & SEND’s proprietary technology platform that’s available anytime, anywhere on any device.
Last Mile Home Delivery Services
Consumer demand is changing. Consumers value fast, flexible delivery and expect parcel delivery to match other parallel consumption experiences (e.g. Uber, Menu-Log, Domino’s Pizza and the like). PACK & SEND is ideally positioned to meet these needs with a premium home delivery service. Our Service Centres can act as an urban ‘consolidation and despatch’ facility that accepts parcels from courier companies for last mile distribution to homes. PACK & SEND can consign these parcels to be delivered to homes at flexible times using our point-to-point carriers.
Parcel Collect Services
PACK & SENDÂ offer a parcel receiving and collection service to both its customers and courier companies, allowing customers to collect their parcel at our Service Centres at their convenience.
