> FedEx Ground service, which is the primary way the company handles deliveries of online purchases made by US consumers, missed its sales target by $300 million.<p>After last year, there is no way I would ship anything Fedex Ground -- at least not until they've had a few years to correct some serious issues. Pretty much every Fedex Ground parcel I had during peak had some sort of major drama -- lost, damaged, severely delayed, misdelivered, you name it. Everyone had problems during peak in '21, but Fedex had an absolute meltdown.
To be fair FedEx packages were <i>extremely</i> expensive in the last year. Like 200$ for a small international parcel. Of course the "demand" for such an expensive service dropped.
