The Challenge:

To facilitate the franchising of the Post Shop network, Australia Post needed to define the economics of the network, including a valuation of the Post Shops to be franchised.

Using the experience of the LPO network, Australia Post developed a Post Shop Franchise system that shares goodwill and also values the business for purchase by a prospective Franchisee.

Australia Post engaged DC Strategy to undertake three key tasks:

1. To confirm the Post Shop valuation process is the most appropriate valuation methodology
2. To confirm the valuation as meeting market demands
3. To provide expert validation of the methodology, for use by senior management
