I've never heard of buying a FedEx route, didn't even realize that was able to be done. I would be interested in hearing more about it though.
I'll follow this thread to check out any other responses.
There are online communities for people buying businesses, starting franchises, etc. Those may be a good place to start. Once you have more information we probably could have some interesting discussion here though.
Interested in this as well. Will follow thread.
The margins are attractive and these routes can be sold as assets (could be useful in searching for financing from the bank). The key is this: do you have any logistics experience? It also can be quite a hefty upfront expenditure for equipment.
