Logistics firm wins national recognition for franchise

A logistics firm based in Swindon has secured national recognition for its franchise offering.

Speedy Freight, a same-day courier and logistics provider, has been ranked 31st in the Elite Franchise Top 100 (EF100) for 2026.

The EF100 is a national league table of top franchise businesses in the UK. It marks the fourth consecutive year the company has appeared in the list.

Michael Wilson, network director at Speedy Freight, said: “We’re proud to be recognised in the EF100 for the fourth year running.”Securing position 31 reflects the hard work of our franchisees and our support teams.

“Having also recently received the Franchisor of the Year Bronze award from the 2025 BFA HSBC UK British Franchise Awards, we are incredibly proud of our franchise model.”

The EF100 assesses franchises against eight core criteria, including size, growth, ambition, and support for franchisees and communities.

Speedy Freight’s place in the EF100 reflects its franchise model and ongoing growth.

The company offers franchisees structured training, operational support, and a framework for business development.

Its UK-wide network of branches provides same-day courier services to customers across the country.

This performance, combined with customer confidence, contributed to its 2026 ranking.

Mr Wilson said: “As we continue to welcome new franchisees and develop our existing network, our focus remains on providing the support they need to grow and to keep the UK moving.”

The company said it will continue to grow its network in 2026 as it celebrates its 20th anniversary.
