“FedEx Logistics is the ‘force multiplier’ within the FedEx enterprise because we bolster the enterprise portfolio by providing specialty solutions that complement core FedEx offerings, giving customers more seamless ways to reach 95 percent of the world’s gross domestic product,” Lange said. “Our air and ocean cargo networks, customs brokerage services and supply chain offerings come together to add value – and multiply results and efficiencies – in ways that cannot be achieved when selling individual logistics products on their own.”
