Memphis, Tenn. – October 23, 2024 ––Federal Express Corporation, a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX) and the world's largest express transportation company, is recognized for being the first and only global end-to-end transportation and logistics service provider to earn the prestigious ISO 9001 global certification for 30 consecutive years – a status never achieved before in the entire transport industry.

ISO 9001 is the international standard for maintaining an effective quality management system, awarded by LRQA, a leading global assurance partner, with over 61,000 clients globally, only 0.7% of which having received similar 30-year certification. The certification was awarded following a complex assessment conducted over two months of auditing, underscoring the magnitude of this accomplishment.

ISO 9001 is the world's most recognized quality management standard, designed to help organizations ensure that they meet the needs of customers and other stakeholders while complying with statutory and regulatory requirements related to a product or service. Achieving ISO 9001 certification demonstrates an organization's commitment to consistently delivering high-quality products, services, and is a clear indicator of operational excellence.

This certification reinforces the company's longstanding dedication to quality and customer satisfaction. The consolidation of the certifications held by legacy FedEx Express, FedEx Ground, and FedEx Services into a single global certification simplifies processes, enhances operational efficiency, and ensures a unified approach to quality management across the entire organization.

"We are incredibly proud to have achieved this global ISO 9001 certification. This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team members around the world who are committed to delivering exceptional service to our customers every day," said Sriram Krishnasamy, chief digital and information officer, FedEx Corp. "It also reflects our unwavering commitment to continuous improvement and operational excellence."

Maintaining compliance with the international standard for quality management over 30 years is a truly significant feat, and we offer our sincere congratulations to the team. They have demonstrated market-leading dedication to reducing operational risks and driving business performance, going beyond compliance to competitive edge."

It also promotes efficiency by streamlining processes, reducing waste and improving resource management. For FedEx, this certification underscores the company's leadership in the global logistics and transportation industry, reinforcing its reputation as a reliable and trusted partner.
