Wonder what those at UPS and Fedex are thinking about this news.

@matthewboyle25 I don't think they're too worried. Amazon makes up about 2% of UPS's revenue. Even if this expands to take over all of UPS's delivery operations (delivering 600 million packages a year), UPS is still in good shape.

@msitver have you read The Everything Store? You better believe UPS and FedEx are concerned.

@ryanshook the story about how bezos squeezed UPS by shifting their entire shipping operation to fedex for 1 day was pretty slick (if you are Jeff bezos anyway!).

@msitver 2% may not seem like a lot, but what happens when Amazon open this unit up to other businesses?

@msitver ... Until Amazon decides to 'AWS' Amazon One i.e. open up the service to 3rd parties
@matthewboyle25 They still need each other. Plus this has been the worst keep secret in the logistics business. This isn't a question of if Amazon would get into this business, it was when would they publicly admit it.
