History
The company was founded in 2000 by father and son Fil and Richard Adams-Mercer together with colleague Steven Kramer.[4] At that time neither United Parcel Service nor DHL were offering online access to their courier parcel services.[5]
In 2009 the company announced a turnover of £11.6 million.[4] In September 2017 Parcel2Go merged with National Pallets of Heathfield, East Sussex, the expected benefit for National Pallets being improved IT support, whilst giving Parcel2go an option to offer customers a pallet service for larger deliveries.[6] In November 2019 the company launched a £500,000 fundraising attempt on Crowdcube.[7] A management buyout was backed by Mayfair Equity Partners.[8]
By 2019 the number of employees had risen to 230,[2] and annual turnover to over £100 million.[3]
