Fastway Couriers, established in 1983, is the world's largest courier franchise system with 104 Regional Franchisees and 1,500 Courier Franchisees and serves a strong market niche untapped by other couriers. Sole Regional Franchise rights for each city are awarded to only one entrepreneur who enters the business of franchising, not package distribution. Cities are then divided into territories which are awarded to Courier Franchisees who conduct the actual distribution of packages.
3@1 franchising offers a one-stop retail opportunity in the business & communications industry, ranging from: electronic communication (email, internet access, e-commerce); business communications (photocopying, laminating, binding, printing, a photo lab, stationery); and postal services (local and international courier, mail box rentals, etc).3@1 recognizes that efficient, effective, fast, relevant and up-to-date means of communication is the lifeblood of international and local businesses alike and therefore provides the most up-to-date, fast and cost effective methods of communication and communication products to businesses and householders alike - and this from local stores carefully positioned within close proximity of our customers.
