How Selena Courier Service Began: A Journey from Fashion to Reliable Deliveries
Hi, I’m Elena Ermakova, CEO of Selena Courier Service, and I’m excited to share the story behind our company. It’s a journey that starts in an unexpected place—London’s fashion industry—and turns into a passion for delivering reliability and care to our clients.
From Fashion Dream to Courier Crisis
Back in 2007, I was living my dream as a PA for a Managing Director in the fast-paced world of fashion. It was a thrilling role, where every day was an opportunity to manage schedules, coordinate fittings, and ensure that time-sensitive deliveries of fabric samples and other items were made.
However, disaster struck in October 2007. A critical delivery didn’t arrive on time for a major fitting session in Central London, and to make matters worse, the package was damaged beyond repair. The client was furious, and as a result, we lost a major order. At that moment, I felt like I had failed, but I also knew that there had to be a better way to manage crucial deliveries.
The Birth of Selena Courier Service
That very moment sparked an idea. After a conversation with my Managing Director about how I could prevent such mishaps in the future, I was given an unexpected but powerful suggestion: “Start your own courier company.”
I couldn’t believe it at first, but as I thought about it, the idea made perfect sense. If I could control the delivery process, I could ensure every package was treated with the care it deserved. That’s how Selena Courier Service was born in November 2007. I launched the company with just one courier and a determination to provide high-quality, boutique direct delivery services at competitive rates.
Our Commitment to Excellence
From day one, the principle behind Selena Courier Service was simple: no delays, no damage. I was determined to make sure that no package suffered the same fate as that fashion item, and this commitment quickly became the foundation of our business.
As word spread about our reliable service, businesses beyond the fashion industry began to reach out. We expanded our client base, providing services for various industries, including law, healthcare, and e-commerce. Today, Selena Courier Service has grown into a leading courier company in London, trusted by numerous businesses for our same-day courier services, premium deliveries, and more.
