Who's Ideal for Us What makes an ideal P.L. Workforce franchisee? Firstly, background. Experience in the transport industry is not a requirement - although those with such a career or business background are most welcome to pursue their interest with us.

As to individual attributes, being a good communicator is vital, with the ability to deal with both employees and customers.
