This FedEx commercial is all about speed. Whether it’s FedEx delivering packages, the FedEx Nascar team or chickens that lay eggs already perfectly cooked, FedEx clearly values speed.
This commercial is only 16 seconds long and intended for use online. It’s the type of commercial you might expect to see before a popular video on YouTube. In the commercial, a barn full of clucking chickens starts the scene before a man in a Nascar uniform with FedEx on the front walks in. He immediately lifts up one of the chickens and leans in to grab underneath it. Instead of pulling out two whole eggs, he pulls out a plate with perfectly cooked eggs.
The tag line for this FedEx commercial is “It’s good to be fast.”
