FedEx, originally known as Federal Express, was founded in 1971 by Frederick W. Smith in Little Rock, Arkansas. Smith, a Yale graduate, conceived the idea for an overnight delivery service in a term paper, which he later turned into a successful business. He raised $91 million in venture capital to support his vision. On April 17, 1973, Federal Express began operations in Memphis, Tennessee, with 389 team members. Memphis was chosen for its central U.S. location and favorable weather conditions. The company's first night saw 14 aircraft deliver 186 packages to 25 U.S. cities. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, FedEx expanded rapidly. By 1983, it became the first U.S. company to reach $1 billion in revenue within a decade of founding without mergers or acquisitions. FedEx expanded internationally in 1984, reaching Europe and Asia, and acquired Flying Tiger Line in 1988, becoming the largest full-service cargo airline. In 1994, Federal Express officially shortened its name to "FedEx" for marketing purposes, reflecting its broader service offerings. FedEx continued to innovate, earning the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award in 1990 as the first service company to do so. By recent years, FedEx had grown into an approximately $87.7 billion global enterprise, serving over 220 countries and territories. Its operations include around 698 aircraft, over 200,000 vehicles, and roughly 5,000 facilities, with more than 500,000 employees handling about 15 million shipments daily. FedEx continues to innovate, unveiling a state-of-the-art automated sorting facility at the Memphis World Hub in October 2024. This facility enhances operational efficiency and speeds up delivery times. FedEx also focuses on sustainability and customer experience through its 2025 Plan, aiming to reduce its environmental impact while maintaining operational excellence. FedEx Corporation, together with its subsidiaries, provides transportation, e-commerce, and business services in the United States and internationally. It operates through FedEx Express, FedEx Ground, FedEx Freight, and FedEx Services segments. The FedEx Express segment offers express transportation, small-package ground delivery, and freight transportation services; and time-critical transportation services. The FedEx Ground segment provides small-package ground delivery services. The FedEx Freight segment offers less-than-truckload freight transportation services. The FedEx Services segment provides sales, marketing, information technology, communications, customer service, technical support, billing and collection, and back-office support services. In addition, the company offers supply chain management solutions; and air and ocean freight forwarding and cargo transportation, specialty transportation, customs brokerage, third party logistics and supply chain, and document and business solutions, as well as provides trade management tools and data.
