FedEx Express, a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. and the world's largest express transportation company, announced today that it is building a new FedEx Singapore Regional Hub which will house FedEx delivery, pick-up and air operations under one roof. The facility, located beside the Airport Logistics Park of Singapore and within Changi Airport’s free trade zone, will boast a 5-belt sort system with capacity to sort up to 9,000 packages per hour and house over 250 delivery vans. When completed, this new regional hub will provide FedEx with seamless one-stop package-handling capability and will enhance its ability to offer customers unparalleled connectivity and enhanced services.

"The new facility will strengthen FedEx operations in Singapore and is designed to provide our customers with greater, faster and more reliable access to regional and global trade opportunities."

"We welcome FedEx's collaboration with Changi Airport Group to commence the development of the Air Cargo Express (ACE) Hub - an innovative infrastructure that will enhance our air cargo competitiveness and enable companies like FedEx to capture new growth opportunities in Asia." said Mr Julian Ho, Assistant Managing Director, Singapore Economic Development Board.
