Here’s more proof that Amazon wants to take on FedEx and UPS

Having amassed a sizable fleet of trailer trucks, and started negotiations with Boeing to lease as many as twenty cargo jets, it’s pretty clear that Amazon wants to take charge of its own deliveries. The company will further demonstrate this when it completes its acquisition of Colis Privé, a French package-delivery company that Amazon already owns 25% of. This doesn’t mean that Amazon will be taking on the likes of FedEx or UPS anytime soon, but it does suggests that the company is planning to do so in the near future. Taking charge of its own deliveries would allow Amazon to make the whole delivery process more efficient, and better ensure that packages are delivered quickly and on time.
