Meet the founders of Wayfair.com and learn the story of where the company came from and, with the help of FedEx, where it’s going. From the beginning, Wayfair.com faced many challenges. Learn how FedEx helped them strategize to get products quickly, and safely, to customers.
FedEx wanted to increase their awareness amongst online retailers and small businesses, with the ultimate goal of creating more partnerships with them. That led to the creation of this pilot video for a series that profiled some of their partners in this arena and showed how FedEx can help growth and be an asset not only in shipping.
Wayfair is an eCommerce company specializing in “home stuff” including furniture, lighting, cookware, and everything in between. Founded in 2002, the company now employs 1,200 people worldwide and recently consolidated hundreds of specialty websites into one, under the Wayfair banner, and opened warehouses in Utah and Kentucky.
Faced with a massive shipping challenge, Wayfair started working with FedEx closely around 2005, and it has proven to be a great partnership in shipping and beyond.
This series was aimed at online retailers and small businesses that are potential partners to FedEx.
