This " three - for - all " between UPS , DHL and FedEx is shaping up to be a good fight for world logistic domination. The recent takeover of TNT is just another chess move within the game these 3 play globally . History will decide if it was a good move or not. I wish them good luck. With 30 % of revenues , (and increasing) coming from internet activity / online purchases and the door to door service these companies provide , there`s plenty of money to be made in the years ahead as the world economy grows. This is a battle that will be fought for the next 20 years , perhaps longer. Meanwhile , ...will there be a Chinese or Indian company that emerges to compete ? Will the Chinese government allow any/ all of these 3 ( foreign ) freight carriers domestic rights for any long term period or anything other than that which benefits China ? Is it too early to hope for a reality show or am I too late with my ..ahem..... pilot ?
