What the official data says about Caerphilly
Multi-drop van work sits squarely inside postal and courier activities, counted at 15 employee jobs in Caerphilly, 0.03% of the 54,000 employee jobs in the area.

UK Business Counts recorded 85 postal and courier activities workplaces in Caerphilly at the March 2025 reference date. Every one of them is recorded as employing under ten. A one-person courier operation is usually an owner-driver, and an owner-driver round is a contract, not a job.
