Every day FedEx delivers for its customers with transportation and business solutions, serving more than 220 countries and territories around the globe.

The FedEx culture and values have been a cornerstone of our success and growth since we began in the early 1970’s. While other companies can copy our systems, infrastructure and processes, our culture makes us unique and is often a differentiating factor as we compete and grow in today’s global marketplace.
