IceBox Franchise Opportunities
As part of our national expansion, IceBox is looking for ambitious and entrepreneurial minded professionals to develop our franchise network. To support this strategy, we have developed a dynamic brand identity over the past few years which has played its part in our positioning as a market leader in the refrigerated trailer and mini-container arena.
UK Franchise Opportunities
IceBox UK was established in 2015 and has grown to become one of the largest refrigerated trailer hire and sales operations in the UK. Our successful development has led to us becoming the sole UK importer and distributor of Wörmann Trailers, a German based industry respected supplier of quality refrigerated trailers. In addition, in 2020 we were appointed as sole UK Rental and Leasing agent for the Coldtainer range of refrigerated mini-containers.
Our refrigerated trailers and mini-containers are rented and leased to a wide range of industries and businesses on both short and long term contracts and we are proud to be associated with household names such as McDonalds, Burger King and KFC, hotels such as De Vere Hotels, Walfdorf Hotels, Hilton Hotel Group and DoubleTree Hotels as well as organisations as diverse in nature as airports including Gatwick, Stansted and Luton, universities, schools and colleges, football and other sports clubs and event management and conference organisers. We are very proud of our high profile, our quality trailers and mini-containers and our unparalleled levels of customer service which has led to word of mouth referrals and a high level of repeat business.
Our continued expansion includes the development of a UK-wide franchise network to enable IceBox to become the only refrigerated trailer and mini-container service supplier able to offer a truly national service provision.

Operational Support
Our experienced operations team provides on-going support, guidance and assistance to each franchisee as required. The continued smooth running of each IceBox franchise is imperative and therefore each location is centrally monitored. Operational data such as fleet / unit utilisation, downtime, income generation and revenue source, delivery and collection statistics and more is captured, analysed and reported on allowing each franchise to analyse their own business and highlight strengths and weaknesses accordingly.
Fleet / Unit Supply
Our appointment as sole UK distribution agents for Woermann Trailers and sole rental and leasing supplier for Coldtainer product across UK, enables us to provide franchisees with extremely attractive terms on the acquisition of their refrigerated trailer fleet and Coldtainer units. We offer very competitive leasing options to enable franchisees to supplement their fleet without long term financial commitment in conjunction with an external fleet / unit asset finance relationship which can, subject to status, be extended to our franchisees.
IT Systems
Class leading communication and IT systems are at the heart of the IceBox development strategy. We operate a cloud based management system which is responsible for the control of the day to day operation of the location in terms of fleet / unit usage, utilisation, customer data and the generation of rental agreements and sales documentation.
Our centralised systems facilitate central reservations, online payment portal, consolidated central billing and fleet / unit yield and utilisation management. We offer the benefit of a full online and secure transactional facility to both retail and corporate customers allowing them to place reservations, make payments and monitor their bookings online.
Each franchisee benefits from their own individual local website (micro website) enabling franchisee-specific detail, information and offers to be displayed and regularly updated.
