2. Greater Value: A special handling code enhances operational capability with prioritized boarding and handling.

3. Peace of Mind: Continuous expert support ensures proactive monitoring with dedicated teams available 24/7.

Wonbin Park, managing director of FedEx Korea stated: “In today’s fast-paced and interconnected world, supply chain visibility and agility are more important than ever.” He added that the solution empowers businesses in Korea to optimize operations.

FedEx's commitment to innovation is evident through its use of AI and machine learning within the FedEx Surround system. These technologies help predict potential disruptions in shipping processes enabling swift decision-making for both FedEx and its customers.
