About The APC
Since 1994, we’ve been at the heart of parcel delivery across the UK. Today, we are the UK’s largest independent parcel delivery network, bringing together over 90 entrepreneurial delivery and collection specialists, all united by a shared commitment to exceptional service.
Our strength lies in our people. Each of our specialists is rooted in their local community, combining local knowledge with the scale, infrastructure, and reliability of a national network. This powerful model allows us to deliver flexible, responsive, and dependable parcel solutions tailored to our customers’ needs.
For more than three decades, we’ve proudly supported thousands of SMEs, helping them grow with delivery services they can trust. We understand the pressures and ambitions of small and medium-sized businesses because we work alongside them every day — providing personal service, innovative solutions, and the confidence that every parcel is in safe hands.
Founded by a group of experienced independent carriers, The APC was built on a simple vision: to raise standards in the UK overnight delivery market through exceptional service and strong local expertise.
That vision still drives us today. We continue to:
Deliver exceptional levels of service
Invest in the latest technology
Prioritise safety, efficiency, and innovation
Our growth has always been carefully managed to protect what makes our network unique — independent businesses working collaboratively to provide national coverage with a personal touch.
Today, The APC Network is part of the WS Holdco Group, benefiting from the backing and strategic support of logistics entrepreneur William Stobart, whose decades of experience in the UK transport and logistics industry further strengthen The APC’s long-term vision and stability.
