CBD Movers Global Limited

What CBD Movers Global Limited does

CBD Movers Global Limited, founded in 2009 in South Morang, Australia, is a master franchisor of residential and commercial moving, packing, and storage services operating a six-country network across Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the UK, India, and the UAE. The company delivers end-to-end relocation services including house moving, office relocation, furniture removals, man and van services, local and interstate moving, professional packing, packing materials, and short- and long-term storage, supported by a contractor fleet of 150+ trucks and 300+ crew members. The company has completed 100,000+ moves and holds 10,000+ verified Google reviews with a 4.73 average rating.

The company's underlying technology stack is proprietary and franchise-facing: automated dispatch, route optimization, integrated invoicing, real-time fleet optimization (claimed to reduce admin time by 40%), digital inventory management, remote quoting tools, and an online Learning Management System with 150+ training programs. Customer-facing assets include a multilingual website supporting English, Dutch, German, Chinese (Simplified), Hindi, Arabic, Urdu, and additional languages. The franchise system spans multiple tiers — Owner Operator Trucking, Self-Storage Business Partner, State Business Partner, Regional Business Partner, National Business Partner, and Courier Franchise — providing both entry-level entrepreneurship and master franchise rights for nationwide expansion.

Revenue is generated through two distinct channels: (1) recurring franchise fees and royalties from the franchise network, and (2) transactional revenue from moving, packing, and storage services billable to end customers (with individual franchise owners reportedly earning $7,000-$8,000/week in revenue and a minimum of $2,000/week in profit after expenses, and a 50% annual ROI cited as a successful outcome). The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, no public funding rounds, and no M&A activity. Headcount is 501-1,000 employees. CBD Movers differentiates from independent removalists through established brand recognition, proprietary operational technology, and a multi-tier franchise growth path; it is not a technology platform and has no public API, AI disclosures, or patents.
