Many people may not realize that FedEx Ground fulfills deliveries through thousands of independent small business owners. Operational entities contracted by FedEx Ground are either Pickup and Delivery (small trucks and vans) or Linehaul (tractor trailers). There are many differences between the two business models and we focus on Linehaul only. If you would like to know more about the pickup and delivery, or "P&D" business model there are some other consulting services that specialize in that area.
Our goal is to provide straight-forward information about the space so you can determine if the business model interest you or not. If so, we can begin to walk you through the details of the business, provide business valuation support, review financing options and look at the opportunities that align with your goals.
