FedEx has announced a significant investment of 30 million euros in the renovation and modernization of the Aéroports de Paris (ADP) complex. The aim is to enhance the facility's capacity to handle freight and oversized shipments at Roissy-Charles de Gaulle Airport. This site, launched in 1999, ranks as FedEx's second-largest air hub after its main international hub in Memphis, United States.
To mark the 25th anniversary of the Roissy-Charles de Gaulle hub, FedEx revealed plans for a new building worth 30 million euros dedicated to handling freight and heavy shipments over 68 kg. The project is part of a broader network optimization program by FedEx to adapt to rapidly changing market needs. A key goal is to improve service quality, especially for heavy shipments within Europe and on intercontinental routes.
The existing infrastructure will be transformed into a logistics complex for heavy cargo operations. The building will centralize the process of handling heavy goods across its 22,200 square meters area and feature advanced technologies like scanners and mobile weight measurement systems. Energy savings are also anticipated through LED lighting installations.
