Benefits to you:
To help you find out more, we run a regular session for those who want to know more about the business plan application (or suitability assessment as it is now known!) This will explain what it is you need to do as well as give you some top tips!
If you have an application to submit, we will explain what you need to do, the timelines, and pitfalls to avoid.
Benefits to you:
As part of our application mentor service, we have a group ‘Interview Ready’ webinar with each of our clients.

On average, it normally takes about 2 months from when you receive your application link to when you get appointed but this can be dependent on any legal work that may need to be completed.. If you are buying an existing Post Office, it can then take between 4-8 weeks until your transfer day. If you are adding a Post Office to your retail shop, it depends on the installation of your Post Office counter.
You (and any party to the application) will need to apply for a criminal record certificate, which can not be dated older than 6 months.
As part of your application you will be required to provide a wide range of documents. Anything that goes into your business plan needs to be proved. By working with us, we will help you to create a customised list of the documents you need.
Once you and your seller have agreed your deal and you have completed your own checks, the current owner should contact the Post Office to notify them that they wish to resign from their contract.
Owning a Post Office can be very profitable and a consistent source of income if managed correctly. We have all the tools and the experience to guide you to make your business a success.
To get a Post Office franchise you have two options, you can either buy an existing Post Office or add one to your existing retail shop. In both cases you will need to make an application to become a Post Master. Whether you are buying a Post Office or adding one, we have the experience and services to support you every step of the way.
You can find listings of available franchises on the Post Office’s official website runapostoffice.co.uk
We recommend contacting us for a free consultation before you register your interest so we can best guide you through the process and guarantee a successful first time application.
