- FedEx has already closed more than 260 stations under Network 2.0.
- Management expects the initiative to save 2 billion US dollars by the end of 2027.
- The company expects full-year 2026 revenue growth of 12% despite fuel and labor-cost pressure.
FedEx is continuing its Network 2.0 restructuring, which will close hundreds of delivery stations and reduce staffing at multiple facilities. PennLive reported on Wednesday, November 11, that the program targets 475 closures by the time it ends next year, with more than 260 already completed.
FedEx President and Chief Executive Raj Subramaniam told investors during a recent earnings call that Network 2.0 is expected to save 2 billion US dollars by the end of 2027. The plan is designed to streamline the delivery network and reduce overlapping costs across FedEx operations.
Cost savings meet holiday demand
The restructuring is taking place as FedEx prepares for a heavy holiday shipping season. The company plans to pause Network 2.0 activity during the peak period so facilities can handle the expected increase in package volumes. FedEx has said the changes are not expected to affect transit times and should eventually support more consolidated Express and Ground pickups.
Subramaniam also told investors that FedEx expects full-year 2026 revenue growth of 12%, while the company faces higher fuel costs and a tightening labor market for truck drivers. The combination of network savings and operating pressure leaves execution central to the investment case: lower structural costs could support margins, but service performance during the transition remains important for customers and investors.
