Description

Driver Hire is one of the UK’s top franchises, winning the prestigious bfa HSBC Franchisor of the Year award in 2019. This is the sixth time this management franchise, operating in the recruitment sector, has won a bfa HSBC Franchisor of the Year award.
Established for over 30 years, Driver Hire has found success as a recruitment business due to its proven formula, which combines a market-leading brand name, robust business systems and comprehensive training and support.
As a Driver Hire franchise business owner, you’ll specialise in providing staff and services to the transport & logistics sector, serving professional clients to both private and public organisations.

Financial details and profit figures re Driver Hire Darlington can be provided following an initial conversation.
Expansion Potential:
Demand for temporary drivers is huge, with this market alone estimated to be worth £3b-£4b per annum, in the UK. Even though Driver Hire is the UK’s largest specialist provider, it still holds a relatively low market share.
Therefore, the established Darlington business still provides plenty of scope for significant growth. For example, the huge increase in home shopping has stimulated demand for multi-drop delivery drivers.
In addition to supplying temporary staff (drivers and non-driving staff), Driver Hire franchisees can generate revenue from providing permanent staff, delivering classroom-based driver training and selling further complimentary products and services e.g. an online driving licence checker and online learning modules.
Competition / Market:
The recruitment sector (including logistics recruitment) is a thriving and competitive market. Our franchisees benefit from an extremely strong brand, proven business processes and extensive support. Combined with the hard work, motivation and commitment of the franchise owner, Driver Hire has a competitive edge which helps ensure its franchisees consistently succeed.
As mentioned earlier, the average full year turnover of a Driver Hire business (single office) for 2021/22 was over £1.2m.
Reasons for selling:
The business is currently operated by Driver Hire (the franchisor), who are looking for the right person to take the business to the next level.
