Orbital Despatches opened on September the 5th 1994 by brother and sister team Mark Boddice and Emma Ellis-Yorke, feeling the need to improve the general attitude towards the parcel industry they decided it was time for an agent to be established who cared about other peoples parcels.  Both with totally different education and work experience backgrounds they felt they had the ideal knowledge and complimentary personalities to pull off such a massive task.

Locating themselves in a small city centre office, with just a typewriter and 2 cars they set about this awesome task, it was not long before help was needed and with this, the Orbital Fleet began.  Within a year a move into larger premises was looking imminent, and by July 1996 a property had been purchased, renovated and occupied by the now growing staff of Orbital.

Now ten years on from that first day in September 1994 Orbital Despatches has established itself as one of the leading courier specialists in the East Midlands, with over 700 customers in Leicestershire and more coming on board every week.  We now operate from modern warehouse facilities in the Barbky Road Industrial Park in Leicester and own a large fleet of modern vehicles.  We are beginning to achieve many of the dreams and ambitions which we set out to accomplish.

Providing a service to our customers in which they can trust and rely when delivering parcels regardless of the size, destination or time limit involved is very important to us and we take the commitment which we make to you very seriously.  Our service levels throughout the UK, Europe and the World are improving every day, through utilising the best routes and modes of transportation many deliveries are taking place with the speed and accuracy that were once only achievable if you got in your car, on a train or on an airplane and took it there yourself.

We specialize in crisis handling.  We are the people who can deliver to the tight deadlines at highly competitive prices.  It is all part of our dedication - which we provide "free of charge" that we can ensure you the best service possible.  We can offer your company a tailor made package suitable to your requirements, a daily collection time can be arranged and help with paperwork - if your load is too much, is always given.

Being a conscientious team, computers have been fully integrated in the office and adapted to the services we provide, we have invested much in the future of computers and track and trace parcels with ease on the internet and through email.  However we believe people are our most important asset and work towards building strong working relationships.

We are very proud that we are able to offer you this service and with very competitive prices, that we full-heartedly believe that we would be a major asset to your company.
