UNISHIPPERS, the largest reseller of transportation services in the United States, is looking for goal-oriented International Franchisees as it expands into the global market. UNISHIPPERS combines the shipping volumes of thousands of businesses to obtain discounts and benefits from major overnight express and other transportation services carriers. These discounts and benefits, usually available only to large corporations, are then passed on to our customers, primarily small to medium sized businesses. UNISHIPPERS contracts with the various carriers to provide pickup, transportation and delivery services, while UNISHIPPERS takes care of direct sales, marketing, billing and customer service. Franchisees will receive a proven, profitable operating system with residual income; custom billing and administrative software; intensive sales, operations and software training at our international headquarters; and on-going support to ensure success. You'll want to take advantage of this ground-floor opportunity with its potential for explosive growth. -1
