Is their still a need for mailbox forwarding companies?

I was thinking about getting into the mailbox forwarding business because I cant stand the ones that are currently online. Too many scams and bad reviews. Before I consider getting into this business I need to know if I would have customers needing my services. Any help, advice, or potential clients please let me know your thoughts. Thanks in advance.

There will not be enough customers for mailbox forwarding, because who will use this service ? Some folks, who travel to India, Nepal for some months ? Currently this is not profitable. Better try to think on something, which can generate a lot of paying customers, like Amazon, E Bay etc.

Yes, there is. They are here for a purpose! And that purpose is so that you can get deliveries to a particular country where you don't reside. For example, you are buying from eBay and that product cannot or does not ship to my country and only ships into places in the US. It's the product of commercial experience and necessity. So I don't think it should be phased out.

It depends on which country I guess. There're some countries with tons of expats, long-term tourists and business people.

There is also a different kind of mail forwarding, especially those for shopping purposes where you consolidate your mail and forward it to another location.
