FedEx is a shipping and delivery company that moves packages and freight for businesses and individuals around the world. Its main services include overnight express delivery, ground shipping, and freight transport for large items. Customers range from small online sellers to major retailers and manufacturers who need goods moved quickly and reliably.

FedEx makes money by charging fees for each shipment, with prices based on speed, weight, and distance. It operates in over 220 countries and territories, making it one of the largest logistics networks on the planet. The company's size and its own fleet of planes, trucks, and sorting facilities give it a scale advantage that is hard for smaller rivals to match. The biggest risk FedEx faces is slowing e-commerce growth combined with rising fuel and labor costs, which squeeze its already thin operating margins and make consistent profitability a challenge.
