In The Spotlight
Amazon Quickly Becoming Rival To UPS & Fedex
We’ve entered the time of year where Amazon packages dominate doorsteps and delivery vans across the country.
When Amazon Prime became popular, Amazon relied heavily on the USPS, UPS, and FedEx to get their packages to the customers.
Now, with Amazon-owned planes and trucks, Amazon is set to deliver half their own packages, setting them up to seriously contend with the big delivery companies.
Over the last decade, Amazon Logistics has purchased freighters and delivery jets, putting them on par with UPS and FedEx.
In fact, Morgan Stanley predicts that Amazon will surpass both delivery giants within the next year.
While the change has definitely gained Amazon more customers with their shift from two to one-day shipping, the move will also force their competitors to up their game and innovate.
In the end, the changes are good for consumers.
