History
We started FGX because we knew there was a better way to do international shipping--by shipping direct. In the late 1990s, James Dowd was on a business trip to Brussels for his former employer, DHL. He was touring the sorting and distribution facility there and experienced firsthand all of the moving parts that it took to complete just one portion of a shipment. As conveyor belts moved packages through the maze that was the facility, his guide proudly boasted that they only lost 86 packages of every 1000 they handle.
