GXO is the world's largest pure-play contract-logistics company — it runs the warehouses behind other people's brands. It never owns the goods: blue-chip customers like Apple, Nike, Nestlé and Boeing pay GXO to store, pick, pack, ship and return their products out of ~1,030 automated facilities (~218M sq ft). Spun off from XPO in 2021, it turned $11.7B of 2024 revenue into a thin ~$138M of profit — a scale-and-automation business, not a high-margin one.
