A delivery network that creates better outcomes for everyone involved, and feels like magic for those using it. There are over 23,000 courier companies in the UK. 20,000 turnover less than £500k a year, 10,000 of which make less than £50k a year. And they all need help in driving up vehicle efficiency, reducing operational costs, winning new business and access to regular cashflow that runs like clockwork so they can grow as much as possible, and not have to stress about getting paid or figuring out how to stay competitive against larger players. We’ve spent the last 6 years understanding the needs of these operators providing multiple last-mile services, across vehicle types, to customers from every industry sector. The level of knowledge we’ve gleaned in that time has given us a clear understanding of where we have to take Gophr next, and what elements need to be in place for us to get there fast. We’re already well on the way: Series A closed end of 2020, 300% YOY growth and on track to 8 figure revenue this year 3 million parcels delivered, in a market that’s set to 3X in size in the next 3 years. 10,000 clients ranging from household name retailers (Co-op and Hellofresh) to independent local restaurants like Smokestak (great brisket) who were winning from established incumbents, and well-funded competitors 4.5 Trustpilot (best rated sameday courier) Net Promoter Score tracking at 75 over the last 12 months (rare in most industries, unheard of in ours) Deloitte Fast 50 winner; Placed at 15, the highest rank with the lowest total amount of institutional investor money raised Net profitable in 2020: this feels rather quaint, but we wanted to prove that a tech startup in the delivery space is capable of building a sustainable business model. This is just the start… :D We’ve gotten where we are to date due to a highly knowledgeable, experienced and solid team of good people who are heads down working to solve big problems. Ideas come from everywhere across the business; we’re run on feedback - from the internal team, to couriers, customers and partners.
