Live in a lake resort area! Company is a well-established print & copy, pack & ship and digital services UPS Store® franchise center offering full-service post office box rental, graphic design, printing, copying, internet access, shipping, UPS, USPS, professional packing, fax, notary, laminating and related products/services. The owner opened this franchise business in October 2003 in the beautiful Cedar Creek Lake resort area of Texas. Gun Barrel City is considered the gateway to Cedar Creek Lake. In addition to the high amount of tourism that the community witnesses (particularly during the summer boating season), Gun Barrel City has experienced a residential building boom over the past several years. This growth has largely been led by the relocation of wealthy retirees & home-based businesses from throughout the Dallas Fort Worth region, building large lake homes in order to take advantage of Gun Barrel City's lake access. The lake itself is the fourth largest in Texas with 220+ miles of shoreline, making it one of the most popular lakes for boating and fishing. UPS Store 4503 provides convenient services and products to help small businesses grow and consumers prosper. Customers receive courteous and friendly service designed to save time at a one-stop location. The business is recession-resistant and has continued to grow in the current economic environment. Customers include a high proportion who prefer to go to the “Official“ UPS store versus deal with UPS drop locations or “wannabes”. The business attracts customers from a 25+ mile radius. Customers drive to this store for superior service and convenience.
