It's no surprise that over the last 20 years, the "Duopoly" of FedEx and UPS tops the list of carriers consistently over the span of time.
Some fun factoids:
🚚 According to Transport Topics annual tracking of Top 100 Carriers, 2004 revenues of the top 20 totaled $104.3B
🚚 In 2022 the top 20 revenues totaled $241.5B
🚚 From 2004 to 2022, the "Duopoly" of FedEx and UPS accounted for 69% increase in revenues of the total Top 20
🚚 The Duopoly accounted for 66% of revenues from latest data of Top 20 Carriers
🚚 3 of the top 20 carriers in 2022 were not in the Top 100 carriers in 2003
🚚 7 of the top 20 carriers from 2004 were acquired
🚚 8 of the top 20 carriers in 2022 were not in the Top 20 carriers in 2003
