In April 2003, over 3,000 Mail Boxes Etc. locations began re-branding to The UPS Store.
Features & Benefits
Our experienced team of support personnel can help you make the most of your time and effort. You can also take advantage of the experience and wisdom of other members of our franchise network - our franchisees, area franchisees, master licensees and vendors.

A Proven Concept
More than twenty-five years of franchise experience with Mail Boxes Etc. and The UPS Store has proven that our concept works in a variety of economic and cultural environments. As a international area franchisee or franchisee, you will receive:

A Proven Operating System
We know how to get a business up and running. Since 1980, we have done it more than 4,800 times. We have developed a highly effective, proprietary business system. In addition, you will learn from our experiences and capitalize on this know-how to build your business rapidly and efficiently.

Training, Guidance and Ongoing Support
Individual franchisees and area franchisees receive complete training within their region for the operation and management of their center. Our international operations team conducts a month-long master licensee training program that covers all aspects of The UPS Store ownership and operation. This training is designed to help master licensees develop and manage a thriving network of The UPS Store locations across a country or territory. Master licensees, area franchisees and franchisees receive scheduled visits from operations personnel to assist with specific needs as the business grows. In addition, there are opportunities to share ideas and interact with members of our worldwide network at regional and global conferences.

Participation in MBE’s Large Global Network
Negotiating strength and purchasing power can lead to significant bottom-line results. They are enhanced when you are part of our global network. Expansion of the network in your country, increases opportunities to develop programs similar to the corporate accounts programs in the U.S. that service large, multinational companies such as Hewlett Packard®, Xerox®, IKON®, and many other programs. Participation in the global network also allows you to share business ideas with franchisees and master licensees. This open exchange of information is crucial in building your business.

Brand Awareness and Recognition
Known and immediately recognized in America, The UPS Store name is also gaining recognition around the world. Building the brand in your country will be part of your responsibility. Even before The UPS Store is widely known in your market, master licensees can benefit when negotiating with prospective franchisees and local suppliers.

Research and Business Development
New products and services are continually being developed. The range of possibilities is virtually limitless within our concept. As we conceptualize, test and implement new programs, we share our findings with our master licensees and franchisees. The result: A stronger, more diverse concept.
