Route Advisors brokers FedEx Ground P&D, linehaul and Amazon DSP route businesses across the Borderplex. El Paso is not a smaller Dallas – it is a different economy. The El Paso region processed about $105.6 billion in import-export trade in 2024, roughly 19% of all Texas cross-border commerce and second only to Laredo. Cross-border freight reached $12.1 billion in the first reporting period of 2025, up 16.1% year on year, on 980,600 truck crossings.
The Borderplex works as one economy across two countries. Ciudad Juárez holds more than 300 export factories employing over 300,000 workers in electronics, machinery and automotive components, and the goods they produce cross into El Paso over the Bridge of the Americas and the Ysleta-Zaragoza bridge before moving north.
For a route buyer that means two things. Commercial and industrial stop density is stronger than the city’s population alone would suggest, because so much of the local economy is warehousing, logistics and light manufacturing. And linehaul work out of El Paso connects to a genuine freight corridor along I-10, rather than existing only to serve local demand.
Industrial vacancy has tightened as third-party warehouses and manufacturers compete for space near the ports of entry.
FedEx route businesses are priced on cash flow, not revenue and not route count. Across the route businesses Route Advisors currently has listed, asking prices run from 1.6x to 6.0x annual cash flow, median 3.6x; FedEx Ground P&D packages specifically run 2.7x to 5.4x.
Two West Texas cost lines are worth modelling before you price a package here.
Fuel runs higher than the state average. Texas averaged $5.83 a gallon for diesel in September 2026 and $3.84 for regular, but El Paso County was reporting the highest regular price in the state at around $4.22. On long-stem-mile territory that is not a rounding error.
Distance is the other. El Paso sits closer to New Mexico’s economy than to Dallas, and the metro’s territories stretch across open ground. A P&L built on DFW stop density will not describe a route here.
Buying a route means being approved as an Independent Service Provider by FedEx Ground: a Request for Information, background and financial review, an interview with the terminal’s senior manager, then a negotiated agreement before the business transfers. Most purchases are financed with an SBA 7(a) loan, where lenders typically want a 10% to 30% equity injection, 20% being the common ask.
Ask which station the routes run from and what its Network 2.0 status is. FedEx is consolidating Express and Ground into shared facilities, roughly 25% complete and targeted for US completion by the end of calendar 2027, with more than 475 station closures expected.
Much of what we broker is never published, because sellers still operating cannot have their drivers and station manager learn the business is for sale. Tell us the market and the budget and we will tell you what is genuinely available across West Texas and the Borderplex.

I am writing to highly recommend Miriam for her exceptional services in facilitating FedEx route transactions.
I purchased my first set of FedEx routes in 2018, and the business grew fourfold following the pandemic. As I reached retirement age, I decided to sell my routes and hired Miriam to manage the process. She successfully facilitated the sale of one portion in 2022 and the remaining two portions in 2025.
Throughout our four transactions together, one purchase and three sales, Miriam demonstrated extensive knowledge of the FedEx process. During a complex partial sale of my entire CSA, she was instrumental in gathering all the necessary data required for the bank to secure financing for the buyer.
I strongly recommend her services to anyone looking to sell their FedEx routes.

I recently listed my Fedex routes with Route Advisors and had a fantastic experience from beginning to end. Miriam and her team were professional and easy to work with, helping at each stage to make sure we completed all steps to get to closing.
In particular, they found a suitable buyer very quickly (within weeks of listing) and vetted the buyer before we moved to due diligence. We then had weekly calls to progress toward closing. The requirements were clear, advice was sound and decision points were presented with plenty of time to make good choices. We were able to move to closing in less than six months, achieving the deal structure and price that was beneficial to us and the buyer.
I highly recommend Route Advisors. Personal service, highly attentive and responsive (we were two time zones apart and I never felt ignored and never had a call that was missed), overall an A+.

Route Advisors was referred to me by a colleague, a former FedEx ISP contractor who successfully sold his business through Miriam. I interviewed approximately four different brokers before deciding to work with Route Advisors. My decision was based on my colleague’s successful experience with them and, more importantly, their extensive knowledge of handling complex FedEx transactions.
Route Advisors ultimately sold my business at a price higher than I had expected. Throughout the transaction, Miriam was involved every step of the way. She connected the buyer with a lender experienced in FedEx transactions, guided both the buyer and seller through the entire sales process, helped the buyer prepare the RFI, and coached the buyer for the interview with FedEx.
I was very pleased with the experience and the outcome. After the sale of my business, I referred Miriam and Route Advisors to another colleague who was also looking to sell his FedEx business. She successfully sold his business as well.
Based on my experience, I would confidently recommend Miriam and Route Advisors to FedEx contractors considering selling their businesses.
