Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
consolidated financial statements included herein.  See Item 1.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company experienced a positive cash flow of $26,759 ($51,135 cash
provided from operating activities and $693 from financing activities, offset
by cash used of $25,069 from investing activities) during the six months
ended May 31, 1997.

Deferred revenue increased $227,450 to $687,817 and deferred franchise
costs increased $77,484 to $224,439 at May 31, 1997.  The increases
were primarily a result of deferring the recognition of revenue and the
expensing of commissions on 14 of the 31 new individual franchises
awarded during the six months ending May 31, 1997.  The Company
anticipates that all of the deferred individual franchise fees and
commissions will be recognized in fiscal 1997.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended May 31, 1997, compared to three months ended May
31, 1996
Total revenues increased $350,549 (53.1%) to $1,010,831 for the three
months ended May 31, 1997.  The increase is primarily attributable to
increases in Individual franchise fees (up 322.9% from $81,800 to
$345,970, Sales of equipment, supplies and services (up 74.3% from
$116,253 to $202,604) and Royalties from franchisees (up 6.0% from
$397,932 to $422,001) partially offset by a decrease in Area franchise fees
(down 62.2% from $59,498 to $22,500).

The $264,170 increase in Individual franchise fees represents 11 more
awards recognized during the three months ending May 31, 1997
compared to the same period in 1996 and a differing mix of per franchise
revenue recognition.  The Company recognized 16 and 5 individual
franchise awards respectively during the three months ended May 31, 1997
and 1996.

The $86,351 increase in Sales of equipment, supplies and services is
primarily due to the increased number of new franchisees that purchased
equipment during the three months ending May 31, 1997 compared to the
same prior year period.

The $24,069 increase in royalties is due to increases in the average store
volumes and number of stores open.

The $36,998 decrease in revenue from Area franchise fees is primarily due
to the lack of awards recognized during the three months ending May 31, 1997.
During the three months ended May 31, 1996 the Company recognized a
portion of the Area franchise fees that were deferred as of November 30,
1995.

Total expenses increased $323,944 (41.1%) to $1,111,390 for the three
months ended May 31, 1997.  The increase is primarily attributable to an
increase in Commissions on franchise sales (up 299.7% from $46,040 to
$184,022), Cost of sales of equipment, supplies and services (up 70.6%
from $102,628 to $175,120) and Other selling, general and administrative
(up 23.6% from $427,614 to $528,660).

The $137,982 increase in Commissions is due primarily to the increased
number of individual franchise awards made during the three months
ending May 31, 1997 compared to the same prior year period and the
differing mix of commissions per franchise.

The $72,492 increase in Cost of sales of equipment, supplies and services
is primarily due to the increased number of new franchisees that purchased
equipment during the three months ending May 31, 1997 compared to the
same prior year period.

The $101,046 increase in Other selling, general and administrative relates
primarily to increases in auditing, consulting and convention expenses.
The Company did not hold a convention in fiscal year 1996.


Six months ended May 31, 1997, compared to six months ended May 31,
1996
Total revenues increased $311,597 (20.8%) to $1,808,702 for the six
months ended May 31, 1997.  The increase is primarily attributable to
increases in Individual franchise fees (up 102.1% from $203,728 to
$411,820, Sales of equipment, supplies and services (up 31.5% from
$237,655 to $312,568) and Royalties from franchisees (up 6.5% from
$963,422 to $1,026,444) partially offset by a decrease in Area franchise
fees (down 59.3% from $67,498 to $27,500).

The $208,092 increase in Individual franchise fees represents 8 more
awards recognized during the six months ending May 31, 1997 compared
to the same period in 1996 and a differing mix of per franchise revenue
recognition.  The Company recognized 19 and 11 individual franchise
awards respectively during the six months ended May 31, 1997 and 1996.

The $74,913 increase in Sales of equipment, supplies and services is
primarily due to the increased number of new franchisees that purchased
equipment during the six months ending May 31, 1997 compared to the
same prior year period.

The $63,022 increase in royalties is due to increases in the average store
volumes and number of stores open.

The $39,998 decrease in revenue from Area franchise fees is primarily due
to no awards recognized during the six months ending May 31, 1997.
During the six months ended May 31, 1996 the Company recognized a
portion of the Area franchise fees that were deferred as of November 30,
1995.

Total expenses increased $285,974 (17.0%) to $1,970,294 for the six
months ended May 31, 1997.  The increase is primarily attributable to a
increases in Commissions on franchise sales (up 82.0% from $120,560 to
$219,442), Cost of sales of equipment, supplies and services (up 34.4%
from $207,732 to $279,217), Other selling, general and administrative (up
4.6% from $918,129 to $960,763) and Royalties paid to area franchisees
(up 22.4% from $298,995 to $365,826).

The $98,882 increase in Commissions is due primarily to the increased
number of individual franchise awards made during the six months ending
May 31, 1997 compared to the same prior year period and the differing mix
of commissions per franchise.

The $71,485 increase in Cost of sales of equipment, supplies and services
is primarily due to the increased number of new franchisees that purchased
equipment during the six months ending May 31, 1997 compared to the
same prior year period.

The $42,634 increase in Other selling, general and administrative relates
primarily to an increase in convention expenses.  The Company did not
hold a convention in fiscal year 1996.

The $66,831 increase in royalty rebates relates to the increase in
percentage of stores that operate within area marketer regions and an
increase in the average store volumes.

PART II.                 OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.

Manelle Enterprises, Inc. v. Pak Mail Centers of America, Inc., Civil Action
No. 96013471, Seventeenth Judicial Circuit Court, Broward County,
Florida.  On September 30, 1996, Manelle Enterprises, Inc. ("Manelle"), a
franchisee, filed a complaint alleging that South Florida Realprop, Inc. d/b/a
Pak Mail Centers of America Southern Region ("SFRI"), Jerald N. Cohn
and Jerry G. Nestos fraudulently induced Manelle to sign a franchise
agreement and a lease relating to a Pak Mail store located in Hollywood,
Florida.  Manelle also alleges that the Company failed to fulfill the
Company's obligations under the franchise agreement.  Manelle also
alleges that the Company violated Florida statutes and breached the
implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.  Manelle seeks rescission
of the  franchise agreement and an unspecified amount of damages,
attorney's fees, costs and interest.  The Company's motion to dismiss the
statutory claims of Manelle was granted on February 7, 1997.
Subsequently, the Company has answered, denying all material allegations
and has also filed counterclaims for unpaid royalties and unpaid equipment
and supply charges.  The Company intends to continue to defend itself
vigorously against the remaining claims and has also served the
guarantors to the franchise agreement between Manelle and the Company
with a lawsuit entitled Pak Mail Centers of America, inc. v. Hilary Tobin and
Mark Tobin, that was filed on March 1, 1997 in Arapahoe County Colorado
Civil Action No. 97CV559, seeking damages for past and future royalties
and unpaid equipment.  On March 11, 1997, a lawsuit was filed in Arapahoe
County District Court by PMCA against Hilary Tobin and Mark Tobin entitled Pak
Mail Centers of America, Inc. v. Mark A. Tobin and Hilary Tobin for breach of
contract in connection with the franchise agreement executed by Manelle
Enterprises on or about February 27, 1996.  PMCA sought an award in an amount
to be proved at trial for, among other things, revenues and lost profits for
royalties that Manelle would have earned for PMCA. Both cases have now settled.
Plaintiff, Manelle Enterprises, and Hilary Tobin, individually, and as
President of Manelle Enterprises, and Mark Tobin, individually, executed a
Release on June 23, 1997 relaeasing Defendants PMCA, SFRI, Jerald Cohn and
Jerry Nestos for all matters arising out of, in connection with, or in any way
related to those certain actions entitled Manelle Enterprises, Inc. Pak Mail
Centers of America, Inc., et al., Case No. 96-13471 CACE (04) and Pak Mail
Centers of America, Inc. v. Mark A. Tobin, et al., Case No. 97-CV-599.

Irwin Jacobs v. Pak Mail Centers of America, Inc.
and South Florida Realprop, Inc.  d/b/a/ Pak Mail
Centers of  America Southern Region, Civil Action,
File No. 95A4565-4, Cobb County, Georgia.  The
complaint alleges wrongdoing on the part of the
Company regarding the termination of plaintiff's
franchise agreement by the Company.  Additionally,
plaintiff alleges that South Florida Realprop, Inc.
(SFRP) provided plaintiff with certain equipment
that SFRP did not have title to, that SFRP and PMCA
somehow inappropriately diverted potential buyers
of plaintiff's franchise, that SFRP and the Company
somehow deceived plaintiff into surrendering
possession of his franchise and then
inappropriately operated the franchise under his
business license, that SFRP and PMCA wrongfully
sold plaintiff's terminated franchise and did not
account to plaintiff or turn over proceeds, and
that misrepresentations were made to the purchaser
of the franchise respecting plaintiff's operation
of the franchise.  Plaintiff seeks $60,000 of
compensatory damages and $150,000 of punitive
damages, as well as costs, interest and attorney's
fees.  The case was removed by the Company to the
United States District Court for the Northern
District of Georgia on August 29, 1995 and now
bears a Civil Action No. of 1 95-CV-2190-RLV.
Contemporaneously with removal of the action, the
Company filed a Motion to Stay the Proceedings
Pending Arbitration, which was granted on January
29, 1996.  On January 22, 1997, the plaintiff filed
an arbitration realleging his claims and seeking a
total of $50,000 plus costs and expenses.  The
plaintiff has also filed a motion with the United
States District Court to lift the stay on those
proceedings.  The Company has thus far vigorously
contested both the arbitration and the motion to
lift the stay.  On or about January 22, 1997, Irwin Jacobs filed
a Demand for Arbitration against SFRP and PMCA with the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA") in Denver, Colorado.  The arbitration
hearing was held on June 10 and 11, 1997.  An arbitration award was
entered on July 8, 1997 in favor of Claimant Irwin Jacobs and against
Respondent PMCA in the sum of $28,303.00, with interest thereon, in
full settlement of all claims submitted to the AAA.
