Manchester Piccadilly service centre as a flagship store for the North of England

Mail Boxes Etc. is the world’s leading third-party provider of shipping, fulfilment, print and marketing solutions to small and medium enterprises and consumers, with a network of over one thousand eight hundred franchise locations in forty eight countries.

The Italian-owned company has now completed a total overhaul and relaunch of the Lever Street store in Manchester city centre, which previously suffered significant flooding damage in late 2023.

Featuring the very latest branding and facilities, the revamped store will now serve as a benchmark outlet, and a training facility for the company’s over one-hundred franchisees from across the country.

Mail Boxes Etc. Learning & Development Manager Lauren Singleton said: “We’re incredibly proud to relaunch our Manchester Piccadilly store as a national flagship outlet and training centre for our national network.

“As a brand, Mail Boxes Etc. is currently bucking the trend on UK high streets and is one of the few chain store outlets opening more stores.

“We believe that’s because our service range meets a growing need, especially with the boom in ecommerce and working-from-home businesses, as well as many companies who in the past might have traded locally now trading nationally and internationally, who want a professional solution for shipping worldwide, or a postal mailbox separate to their operational or residential address.

“For shipping, we take away the burden of choosing the right shipping partner for each package and help with documentation to ensure packages arrive with less likelihood of delays, and our packing solutions are extremely attractive to people exporting and importing fragile items.

“In an increasingly online world, we are proud to still maintain that walk-in capability, where you can discuss your needs with a living, breathing human, which is why training of our franchisees is so important.

“The Manchester Piccadilly outlet will now be a central component of our training ongoing, while also providing access to all our facilities for the people living and working in the vibrant heart of one of the UK’s most exciting cities.”

Mail Boxes Etc. is part of MBE Worldwide, which in 2023, served over one million business customers worldwide through its multi-brand operations, generating €1.4 billion.
