FedEx History

Throughout its history, FedEx has been a leader in the transportation and information industry. Collectively, the FedEx companies' historical milestones demonstrate the foresight and leadership of the trusted FedEx brand — and span nearly a century, ranging from the founding of C.J. Tower & Sons (now FedEx Trade Networks) to the formation of today's FedEx. 

Today's FedEx is a network of companies that share a rich heritage of innovation and industry leadership. While each company has a unique history, collectively they exhibit the "absolutely, positively" dedication to providing specialized solutions for every shipping, information and global trade need that the world has come to expect from FedEx.
