The Goodwill Solutions model is that of a logistics services and furniture supply company. The organisation currently occupies 70,000 sq ft and is actively seeking further space in the Northampton area to meet the growing demands of its Drop Ship Vending operations. The organisation has now established a national Home Delivery network to facilitate flatpack furniture deliveries to supermarket customers.

Profits generated over operating costs are used to create training and employment opportunities
for people who would normally experience difficulty in finding meaningful employment, and for subsidizing furniture that is supplied to local charity and welfare organisations and their clients.
