FedEx launches new e-commerce platform to compete with Amazon

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The platform will integrate with ShopRunner, an online e-commerce store the company bought in 2020.

The company writes that sellers using fdx can ShopRunner platform can use it to “see shipments in near real time,” choose supply chain resources based on carbon impact, and to handle returns.

FedEx says when fdx launches in the fall, it will give sellers “more efficient, cost-effective deliveries” using its data.

The move appears aimed at competing with Amazon, a company FedEx has seen as a threat to its business for years.

That’s just a few years after the online retail giant built up a logistics operation that largely uses tightly controlled third-party contractors that Amazon insists aren’t its employees.

At the same time, Amazon was continuing to build up its own logistics operation that uses a fleet of mostly tightly controlled third-party contractors that it insists aren’t employees.
