[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 1383512, member: 1"] [B][URL='http://www.euro2day.gr/ftcom_en/article-ft-en/1245021/ups-and-fedex-turn-focus-to-consumer-behaviour.html']UPS and FedEx turn focus to consumer behaviour - EURO2day[/URL][/B] Online retailing and business-to-business ordering are driving up traffic volumes for both UPS and FedEx but also making flows harder to predict. The question for both companies is whether management changes and technology investments can help them to avoid a repeat of the chaos that engulfed UPS last Christmas, when demand surged more than anticipated.
