Introduction to FedEx
Federal Express (FedEx) is a global logistics company that started its operations in 1971. This multi-national logistics company originated as a term paper written by the company’s founder Fredrick W. Smith during his school years. Little did he know that it would revolutionize the world and make “Absolutely Positively” the tagline for FedEx shipping services, years later! The name ‘Federal Express’ was coined keeping the nationwide economic benefit in mind where ‘federal’ was the representation for the country’s Federal Reserve Bank which would offer Smith with his desired clientele.
FedEx opened its doors to international shipping with Europe and Asia markets from 1984 onwards and since then it did not look back. FedEx shipping service has provided millions of individuals and businesses with optimum logistics solutions for their growth and development. It has resulted in a large scale of imports and exports carried out across the globe. Thanks to FedEx, they have brought the world closer into a tightly knit progressive community.

How does FedEx Work?
There are various processing locations where FedEx has its shipments and freight sorted, handled, and routed to the tagged destinations. There are unique barcodes assigned to each package, which is scanned through the entire process and this enables customers to conveniently track their shipment and know about its expected time of arrival.

During the shipment process, the barcodes are scanned and tracked at each procedure.
