Exploring New Opportunities

The rise in online shopping and e-commerce has created steady demand for reliable shipping solutions. Many businesses are actively reviewing their delivery costs and looking for ways to streamline how they send parcels.

World Options franchisees can offer competitive shipping rates from leading couriers, giving businesses access to a wider range of options when managing their deliveries.

Alongside shipping services, franchisees also provide guidance, account support, and access to an online platform that helps customers book and compare shipments with ease.

This combination of tools and partnerships allows franchisees to work with a variety of SMEs, giving them the chance to build long-term relationships with local businesses.

We work with the Following Courier Partners

Thanks to our bulk buying power, we pass on the savings we achieve through large-volume discounts. This gives you access to competitive shipping rates that are not typically available to individual businesses.

You’ll also have the benefit of established relationships with trusted courier partners. This allows you to offer customers a wide choice of delivery services without having to negotiate contracts yourself.

In addition, our technology platform simplifies the quoting and booking process, helping businesses compare options quickly and choose services that best match their needs.
