The Basics of Owning FedEx Routes

<p>The FedEx Ground division is FedEx&rsquo;s second most lucrative segment and brings in around&nbsp;<a href="https://csimarket.com/stocks/segments.php?code=FDX" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">30%</a>&nbsp;of the shipping giant&rsquo;s revenue. But unlike its other divisions &mdash; and even most of the other major U.S. delivery operations &mdash; FedEx Ground does not employ its own drivers. Instead, the company depends on a network of ISPs (Independent Service Providers) to complete all of its deliveries. Drivers are therefore employed by contractors, not FedEx.</p> <p>This unique structure has made it possible for anyone with deep enough pockets to purchase FedEx Ground routes and operate as an ISP. The downside to this independent structure is that FedEx does not provide training or crash courses to new ISPs. Route owners are left to research how to run, operate, and manage an entire business on their own.</p> <p><a href="https://onehundredfeet.medium.com/the-basics-of-owning-fedex-routes-fc52a527b5f"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
