Our History
The story of Crown Couriers started with just two vans back in 1990.
A lot has changed since then, we moved to our current site in Tamworth around 13 years ago and have grown to a fleet of over 800 vans and over fifty internal staff.
But one thing hasn’t changed; our Managing Director who started the business almost three decades ago and his mission to be the trusted partner to businesses that need a reliable, bespoke same day courier. Testament to that are the customers that have stayed with Crown from the very beginning and still value its courier service today.
Our History
The story of Crown SDS started with just two vans back in 1990.
We’ve since grown to a fleet of over 3,000 vehicles and self-employed drivers nationwide.
But more notably, the range of solutions and technologies we have developed for our customers has advanced significantly in that time.
And whilst same day courier service is still the core of what we do, our complex logistics solutions enable us to deliver more for our customers.
