Your Man With A Van Featured in BDaily

We were featured in BDaily this week, and we wanted to share it with you.

BDaily is one of the UK’s leading business news platforms, covering entrepreneurs, growth businesses and the stories behind them. Being picked up by them felt like the right kind of recognition: not flashy, just a well-read business publication covering a real story.

The article covers our shortlisting for the 2026 Allica Bank Great British Entrepreneur Awards, specifically Cat’s nomination in the Start-Up Entrepreneur of the Year category. She was selected from more than 5,000 applicants nationwide. The field included businesses from technology, hospitality and retail, and we’re proud to be standing alongside them.

The piece also talks about where we’ve come from. Dan started this in 2010 with one van in the north east. The franchise launched in January 2024. We now have 65+ branches across the UK, 3,000+ five-star reviews, and a 99% five-star rating across the network.

Cat’s quote in the article says it better than we could here:

“When Dan started this in 2010 with one van and a genuinely ridiculous work ethic, awards weren’t part of the plan. The franchise is two years old and we already have 65 branches. That’s not my achievement. It belongs to every franchisee who said yes to this idea, packed their van on a Monday morning and went out and built something real in their town.”

That’s it, really. That’s the whole thing.
