Director at Fantasy Couriers
United Kingdom
Currently we are building 2 new businesses. The first is Boxby.
Boxby is a total courier solution website. With over 800 registered couriers, with a complete UK coverage we are able to find a courier for anyjob, anywhere in the UK. Ideal for items that are too large, too heavy, or just generally unsuitable for the parcel network.
Our newest business is Fantasy Couriers. Fantasy Couriers is an online multiplayer business game. With the competitiveness of the fantasy league games, and the fun of the popular tycoon games, but requiring a deeper level of skill and concentration. This game will be launching shortly.
Previous business experience includes running a local village shop and post office, I trained as a Chartered Accountant, and in what seems like a previous life worked with Arthur Andersen and Binder Hamlyn.
For several years our partnership "Simply Clearances" operated a delivery service based mainly around antiques and furniture. However this service expanded rapidly with the demand from many private individuals for an easy affordable alternative to the next day courier service.
