摘要

Driven by the rampant growth rate of e-commerce, FedEx recently announced that FedEx Express, its global, time-definite delivery service unit, will contract with FedEx Ground, its ground transportation package delivery services unit, for the transport and delivery of select day-definite, residential Express shipments. Company officials said that FedEx Express packages will be selected for delivery via FedEx Ground if they are residential deliveries for which FedEx Ground can meet the service commitment. According to FedEx, this initiative will kick off in Greensboro, N.C., with other markets to be added throughout 2020.
