FedEx Opens Six Offices Worldwide

FedEx Trade Networks has opened six new freight forwarding offices across its Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region and its Latin America region as part of a global expansion plan.

In EMEA, the operations are located in Brussels, Belgium; Manchester and London, United Kingdom; and Mumbai and Chennai, India. In Latin America, the company opened a location in Mexico City, Mexico.

The addition of these offices to the company’s existing infrastructure provides its customers with enhanced freight forwarding services between and among EMEA, Latin America, Asia-Pacific and North America, as well as intra-regionally, with the additional benefit of local and global expertise.

The EMEA offices are in key trading and distribution centers and strengthen the company’s position in the region. Belgium, an access point to major ports, is centrally located at the heart of what is considered the golden triangle that links Amsterdam, Paris and Frankfurt. The UK is a leading trading power and financial center and home to one of the busiest airports in the world.

Opening offices in India is another key component of the company’s global expansion. India is one of the fastest-growing economies in the world and presents potential in terms of market growth, capacity, and expansion.

By establishing operations in Mexico, FedEx Trade Networks can facilitate increased end-to-end control of shipments and offer customers reliable services between Mexico and the rest of the world. The Latin American market overall generates substantial trade with North America and increasing volumes with EMEA and Asia-Pacific.
