FedEx has released its 2025 Global Economic Impact Report, revealing that the company contributed $193 billion AUD in direct and indirect value to the global economy in FY25.
Produced with Dun & Bradstreet, the report outlines how FedEx continues to fuel innovation, global trade, and community support through what it calls the “FedEx Effect.”
President and CEO Raj Subramaniam said the company’s focus on innovation and service excellence has enabled it to adapt to a rapidly evolving trade landscape while supporting global supply chains.
Operating one of the world’s largest industrial networks, FedEx serves over 220 countries and territories, employs more than 500,000 people, and moves around 17 million packages per day, worth over $3.1 trillion annually.
During FY25, FedEx continued to optimise its surface and air networks and completed several major infrastructure projects, including a new Life Science Center in the Netherlands and an automated sort facility in Memphis. The company also advanced toward its 2040 carbon-neutral goal, deploying $4.7 million worth of sustainable aviation fuel at Los Angeles International Airport.
FedEx’s economic footprint extends beyond logistics. Around 90 per cent of its 100,000 suppliers are small- and medium-sized businesses, and its FedEx Cares initiative contributed $86.0 million to nonprofits and more than 81,000 volunteer hours globally in FY25.
In the United States, where FedEx employs about 375,000 people, the company directly contributed 6.6 per cent of the transport and warehousing sector’s total output. Its extensive domestic network, including hubs in Memphis and Indianapolis, continues to play a critical role in global trade and supply-chain resilience.
