throughout the United States on Sept. 25 to expand the service's geographic reach to 80 percent of the U.S. population.
FedEx Ground will co-locate 56 of the new FedEx Home Delivery terminals with existing FedEx Ground facilities to optimize its network.
"Shippers and their customers continue to respond enthusiastically to the service and we are expanding the network to achieve full U.S. coverage, more than one year ahead of schedule," said Daniel J. Sullivan, president and chief executive officer of FedEx Ground.
The expansion is just in time for the holiday season. More than 8,000 shippers, including retailers such as Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, U.S. Toys and Harry & David, have used the service.
"We chose FedEx Home Delivery because it offers something more -- exceptional FedEx tracking along with evening and Saturday deliveries," said Patrick Connolly, executive vice president and chief marketing officer for Williams-Sonoma.
