Competition

The competition in the package delivery service is very global. FedEx Corporation's number one competitor is UPS (United Postal Service), but also competes with DHL, USPS (United States Postal Service) and a host of other smaller companies at home and abroad. Competition is not becoming more global due to the fact that companies are merging and the industry is consolidating. FedEx must make enormous investments in hubs, air and ground fleets, and trucking technology to stay on top of the competition. They try to stick out from their competitors by offering better quality shipping service. They continue to offer faster deliveries and expand their global network.

  1. Good company to choose, I think you meant competition is not becoming more intense, but otherwise, you're right, huge entry barriers for this industry.
