These improvements benefit customers with planned inventory replenishment. FedEx National LTL was created in September 2006 when FedEx acquired the business assets of the former Watkins Motor Lines.

“A little over a year ago, we announced our strategy of providing a reliable and cost-effective service for long-haul shippers, complementing our regional LTL service,” said Douglas G. Duncan, president and chief executive officer of FedEx Freight. “Today, through FedEx National LTL, we are delivering on that promise. Further, we are able to leverage both networks to offer all-points coverage in the regional and long-haul sectors.”

In addition to expanding its domestic portfolio through FedEx National LTL, FedEx Freight is enhancing its Canadian service offerings with FedEx Freight Canada, the first-ever direct LTL presence for FedEx in Canada.

The growing company handles LTL shipments moving into and out of Canada and intra-Canada shipments. This door-to-door service provided by FedEx Freight companies offers greater visibility and reliability for Canadian LTL shipments and trans-border pickup and delivery points in the U.S.
