FedEx enhances delivery service on import shipments for customers in Japan
FedEx has announced that it has enhanced delivery service on import shipments to Japan so its customers in Mie Prefecture can now receive their packages arriving from Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa one day faster.
The Mie Prefecture region covers Yokkaichi City, Tsu City and Suzuka City.
The enhanced service applies to customers who are using FedEx International Priority (IP) and FedEx International Priority Freight (IPF).
The upgrade also applies to the recently announced FedEx International Economy (IE) and FedEx International Economy Freight (IEF) services, which deliver packages to customers in Japan in 2 to 5 business days.
Kei Alan Kubota, Managing Director, FedEx Express Japan, commented: “FedEx understands the growing demand of local import businesses and customers in the Mie Prefecture for faster and more reliable delivery of packages.
“With the surge in value of imports from Europe and Asia by 20.3% and 29.8% year-on-year respectively in 2022, the shorter transit time can support the recovery of Japan’s economy and benefit more customers in Japan who are able to receive their shipments much faster.”
