Will FedEx Grow an Indian Supply Chain Titan?

On July 16th, FedEx Express Corp. concluded negotiations with Delhivery to further develop Indian’s international trade. The long-term equity and commercial agreements with the Indian logistics company  will have FedEx infusing $100 million USD into Delhivery as well as collaborating to split the Indian markets. FedEx will provide and develop India’s international export and import services while Delhivery will work with FedEx to sell the products and services in the Indian market. Additionally, FedEx agreed to transfer certain domestic assets in India to better help Delhivery provide pickup and delivery services throughout India.
