The printing and shipping franchise brand <strong>awarded 32 franchises<\/strong> across its network \u2014 and opened 14 new locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those are real numbers worth looking at.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Breaking Down the 32 Franchises Awarded by PostNet in 2025<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/postnet-reports-strong-franchise-growth-110300475.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">recent<\/a> Press Release, here&#8217;s exactly what PostNet reported:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>14 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefranchiseking.com\/pvolve-franchise-opens-6-locations\">new locations<\/a> opened<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>18 ownership transfers completed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>7 franchises awarded to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefranchiseking.com\/arthur-murray-dance-studios-existing-franchisees\">existing owners <\/a>expanding their footprint <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>25 franchises awarded to first-time PostNet owners<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>That last number is notable. Twenty-five new franchise owners joined the system in a single year. That&#8217;s a great vote of confidence in the brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>What PostNet Actually Does<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PostNet has been around since 1993. The brand operates nearly 700 locations across North America, Central America, South America, and Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Services franchisees offer include commercial and digital printing, shipping and logistics, marketing services, and ecommerce fulfillment. It&#8217;s a B2B-leaning model. The customer base skews heavily toward small and mid-sized businesses. You know what that means?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It means franchisees need to get out of their stores and develop new business. From other small businesses in their territory.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, in 2017, PostNet joined the MBE* Worldwide family \u2014 now operating under the brand name Fortidia. That parent company runs more than 3,200 locations across 57 countries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*Mail Boxes Etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>What Prospective PostNet Franchisees Should Think About<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ownership transfer numbers deserve attention. Eighteen transfers in one year feels like a lot. Transfers happen for many reasons \u2014 retirement, health, burnout, relocation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, before you buy a PostNet franchise, you&#8217;d want to know why those specific locations changed hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, the 7 <em>existing<\/em> owners who expanded their footprint is a more encouraging signal. Franchisees who already <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefranchiseking.com\/franchise-business-system-promise-reality\">know the system<\/a> and invest in more units are putting their own money where their mouth is. In my experience, that matters a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, PostNet offers training and ongoing operational support. The model is service-based, which means lower inventory risk compared to product-heavy franchises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>The Bottom Line on Postnet Awarding 32 Franchises<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>PostNet&#8217;s 2025 numbers are solid. New owner growth plus multi-unit expansion from existing owners is a healthy combination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, PostNet&#8217;s 32 awarded franchises doesn&#8217;t tell you everything you need to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, before you write any checks, read the FDD. Learn all about the PostNet <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefranchiseking.com\/evaluate-the-franchise-leadership-team\">leadership team<\/a>. Study Item 19. Talk to current and former franchisees \u2014 not just the ones the company refers you to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Impressive growth numbers from a press release are a starting point. They&#8217;re not enough of a reason to buy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(<em>Main image courtesy of PostNet, <a href=\"https:\/\/locations.postnet.com\/tx\/austin\/3571-far-west-blvd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Austin<\/a><\/em>) <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PostNet had a strong year in 2025.
