I'm considering buying an existing contractor's FedEx Home delivery routes. I had a couple questions for anyone that would care to answer or comment.....
- What is the likelihood FedEx would take over some/all of the Home business?
- Package volume should continue to increase as internet purchases rise. Agree? Would the loss of USPS contract significantly impact Home volumes?
- By far, the single largest challenge is finding and retaining qualified drivers. True? Anyone care to comment on what on what pay level seems to keep the quality drivers, recognizing pay varies geographically?
- I would hope that somewhere down the road, this business would be able to expand by acquiring additional routes (within FedEx terminal limit). Is this reasonable to assume?
- If you're a FedEx Contractor are you happy with the business, performance and future with FedEx?
