[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 4331995, member: 1"] [URL='https://gulfnews.com/business/retail/this-year-they-stood-and-delivered-1.68961435'][B]This year they stood and delivered - Gulf News[/B][/URL] [B]US logistics and retail giants managed to get holiday packages delivered on schedule[/B] The stretch between Black Friday and Christmas during the most recent holiday season was the shortest it’s been since 2013, a year that will live in logistics infamy after United Parcel Service Inc. failed to deliver gifts in time for their contents to become stocking-stuffers. So the big question this time around was: Had UPS learnt enough — or more accurately, spent enough — over the past few years to avoid similar e-commerce pileups in its network? And what of FedEx Corp.? The company seemed to offer up a fresh cut to its guidance every time management took to the airwaves last year and got itself banned in early December from carrying packages for third-party sellers on Amazon.com Inc.’s Prime service because of alleged poor performance.
