This is a company that works with a multibillion-dollar corporation to serve established clientele across the country that wants a certain level of service. Most Mission route owners run the business alone and will hire workers to assist them to decrease their weekly work hours to a level that suits their lifestyle (whether that means working 10 or 40 hours a week), but running a genuinely satisfying business requires hard effort as well.

This business may be highly profitable if you're not scared to undertake some work for already-established clientele.
