By Denny Jacob
FedEx Corp. said Thursday that it was increasing its rates as it
operates in a more difficult environment.
The carrier said FedEx Express, FedEx Ground, and FedEx Home
Delivery rates would increase by an average of 6.9%, effective Jan.
2. FedEx Freight rates would increase by an average of 6.9% to 7.9%
depending on the customer's transportation-rate scale, the Memphis,
Tenn.-based company said.
The change comes as FedEx previously warned that revenue in the
second quarter fell below its expectations and it was ushering in a
flurry of changes to offset declining volumes of packages. The
company issued its first-quarter results on Thursday.
