FedEx Corporation has once again been recognized among the world's most admired companies, according to a survey published by Fortune magazine. The annual report "World's Most Admired Companies," released today, places FedEx at number 20 overall. This marks the 25th consecutive year that FedEx has been among the top 20 companies on this prestigious Fortune list. Additionally, FedEx remains the highest-ranked shipping company on the general list of "World's Most Admired Companies."

"I am incredibly proud of the FedEx team for this achievement," stated Raj Subramaniam, President and CEO of FedEx Corporation. "This recognition reflects the unwavering dedication of our more than 500,000 team members globally who deliver exceptional experiences and innovative solutions that make supply chains more efficient for everyone."

The survey evaluates nine attributes ranging from investment value and management quality to social responsibility and ability to attract talent.

Fortune's list of "World's Most Admired Companies" is considered the definitive assessment of corporate reputation. Since 1997, Fortune has identified, selected, and ranked the world's most admired companies, highlighting business practices that make them highly regarded among their competitors.

Survey Methodology

Fortune collaborated with Korn Ferry on this corporate reputation survey. They began with a selection of approximately 1,500 candidates: America's largest 1,000 companies ranked by revenue, along with non-U.S. companies in Fortune's Global 500 database generating $10 billion or more in revenue.

The list was then narrowed down to the highest-revenue companies in each industry, totaling 650 companies across 30 countries. The top-ranked companies were selected from this group of 650, and voting executives belonged to firms within that same group.

To determine the most reputable companies in 51 industries, Korn Ferry asked executives, directors, and analysts to rate companies in their own sector based on nine criteria ranging from investment value and management quality to social responsibility and ability to attract talent. For a company to be included on the list, its score in its industry's survey must rank in the upper half.
