Inside FedEx’s Network 2.0 overhaul

A facility in a Dallas suburb offers a glimpse into FedEx’s newly integrated approach for sorting and delivering packages across the country.

MESQUITE, Texas — What FedEx CEO Raj Subramaniam has called "one of the biggest industrial transformations in recent history" is in full swing inside one of the carrier’s facilities serving customers in East Texas.

At the facility in the Dallas suburb of Mesquite, FedEx package handlers and delivery drivers work in tandem to advance the parcel shipping giant's neverending pursuit: delivering shipments of all kinds — from tires to GLP-1 medications — to businesses and residents on time.
