FedEx receives Asian accolade
FedEx Express has been named amongst the Top 20 in the 200 Most Admired Companies in Asia published by The Wall Street Journal Asia. FedEx ranks 20th place among multinational companies in the annual listing, the highest among all international express companies.
The survey lists the top 200 multinationals operating in Asia along with Asia-headquartered corporations, based on five attributes: company reputation, quality of products and services, management’s long-term vision, innovation, and financial soundness.
More than 2,700 executives and professionals from a wide range of industries across Asia Pacific participated in this online poll.
“We are honoured to receive such recognition from executives in the Asia Pacific region,” said David L. Cunningham, Jr., president, FedEx Express Asia Pacific. “The result is testimony to how FedEx has gone above and beyond in delivering service excellence, whatever the environment.”
With more than 14,000 employees serving more than 30 countries and territories in the Asia Pacific region, FedEx continues to expand and enhance its services across the Asia Pacific region.
In January, FedEx began its Boeing 777 Freighter (777F) service on routes out of Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore and Osaka. Three months later, FedEx launched an overnight service from Hong Kong to its European hub in Paris, France. In October, the company enhanced its connectivity between China and the US with the launch of two new flight services. The first being a new transpacific flight from Beijing, China to Anchorage, Alaska, with a stop-over in Incheon, South Korea; the second is a 777F service in connecting Shenzhen to Memphis. FedEx also launched a new flight to and from Hanoi four times a week in November.
