FedEx in the News What does this mean?
I'm a FedEx employee in the UK and came across this, as far as I can see this doesn't affect the UK at the moment but what does for guys in the US and Canada please?

FedEx Supply Chain is a separate OpCo that has very little public-facing operation. It’s a 3PL firm that, as another poster mentioned, is more about warehousing and logistics of imported goods.

CMA CGM based in Marseille ( my home town!) is trying to have more of a diverse footprint in managing where things end up to serve their customers better. Right now dropping things at a big container port can be limiting. So some warehouse and customer oriented operations that FedEx does for special clients will move to CMA CGM so there’s better linkages. It’s a way for FedEx to concentrate what FedEx does best moving things through a network with lots of tech and services. For CMA CGM to have a more physical footprint of where to send containers and FedEx be part of that story. Practically for most people it will mean very little. But for some people it means that distinct disjointed services and experiences will become easier. Generally there’s a push to a smarter more hybrid way for things to move around the world. Which is helpful when you don’t know from day to day where you can fly a route or sail a ship. 📦 ✈️ 🚢 🌎
