FedEx has announced an expansion of its Operations Center in Costa Rica, coinciding with the 25th anniversary of its presence in the country. The facility, which opened in 2022, has increased its size by 26% and now covers over 12,600 square meters. It occupies more than half of the El Quijote Logistics Park in Belén de Heredia.
The expansion includes new last-mile ground operations (Shipping Center), complementing existing export and import processes. FedEx has also added two temperature-controlled cold rooms certified by IATA’s CEIV for handling pharmaceutical cargo, as well as two additional cold rooms for non-pharmaceutical imports. An area dedicated to special logistics services (SEL) has also been established.
“This year marks the 25th anniversary of the start of our operations in Costa Rica. This new investment means greater capacity and operational efficiency to meet growing demand and strengthen the competitiveness of Costa Rican companies internationally,” said Basil Khalil, vice president of operations for FedEx in the Caribbean and Central America. “By investing in infrastructure and service improvements, we enable faster, more flexible, and efficient cross-border trade.”
