Sounds like 3 or more days and would fall on National.Cityman said:Lets say a FedEx Freight driver in Toronto Canada for example picks up a skid going to Florida,how will they determine who will deliver the shipment?
TwoLane said:I think FedEx Freight Canada will have centers popping up all around Canada. From my understanding, Day & Ross will eventually be eliminated from the picture. I think we will see international crossing of our freight, by our drivers. This is why FedEx Trade Networks is so important. They make crossing the border very easy. The eventual goal, is to be able to drag freight wherever we need to in North America, without anyone else.
I would imagine the 3 day points will go to National and the 1 and 2 day points will go to Freight out of Canada and back up to them to plus the other driver said you will see new terminals going up all over Canada well why they will just take over the existing Watkins terminals up there. There will be multiple points going into Canada through our companies both Freight and National. Af now FXF already proved along time ago that it is more profitible to multiple hubs instead of few large ones, same with points ging into up there.Cityman said:When everything is complete we know if a FedEx Freight driver and a National LtL driver pickup of skids going to Calgary Alberta Canada the the local Calgary FedEx Freight Canada driver will deliver them. But how will the determine who will deliver the crate the Calgary driver pickup on his route going to Buffalo New York USA? Both companies have terminals in Buffalo. Does all USA inbound Canadian freight get delivered by FedEx Freight or will it be split with FedEx National LTL?
You are exactly right my friend it's only been 4 days since the announcement there are 2 many details to be worked out for these type of pacific: ques. to be answeredSmokestack said:I tried to talk to my CCM today about all of this but it seemed like he did not want to talk much about it . I think even they may not know all details about what is what yet . I did see all the sales force in early today and in his office for a meeting .
Maybe Day and Ross should have tried to purchase Watkins before we did. Oh well, no one ever accused Fred Smith of playing in the minor leagues.Familyman said:Except Day and Ross.........
