Federal Express Corporation, a leading name in express transportation, has announced an expansion of its air network. This development aims to enhance South India's access to essential imports from the Asia-Pacific region and boost exports to Europe and the USA. The new flight service is expected to optimize logistics and supply chains, thereby strengthening South India's role in global trade.

Richard W. Smith, Chief Operating Officer, International, and Chief Executive Officer, Airline at FedEx stated, “India is one of the most exciting economic growth stories in the world today, and as such represents a critical growth market for FedEx.” He expressed enthusiasm about opportunities in this dynamic region and highlighted FedEx's commitment to connecting local businesses globally.

Kami Viswanathan, President of Middle East, Indian Subcontinent and Africa at FedEx added that “South India plays an important role in India’s growth story," noting that it houses some of the country's top manufacturers in electronics, automotive, and healthcare. Viswanathan emphasized that the new flight service is a strategic move by FedEx to meet growing demand and connect seamlessly with global markets.

The newly launched flight connects Guangzhou directly to Bengaluru. This connection reduces transit times by one business day for many shipments within the region. With 22 weekly flights now operating from Bengaluru, this service facilitates faster access to crucial imports like lithium-ion batteries needed for automotive and electronics sectors. It also increases export capacity to Europe and the U.S., supporting businesses across various industries including healthcare and e-commerce.

FedEx continues its commitment beyond enhanced connectivity by innovating its digital ecosystem. Tools such as FedEx Import Tool simplify import processes while FedEx Delivery Manager allows businesses more flexibility with delivery options. The expansion of the Delhi Gateway Hub has also bolstered international shipping capabilities for Indian businesses.

Federal Express Corporation remains dedicated to supporting India's ambition of becoming a major player in global manufacturing and trade through continuous investments in technology and infrastructure.
