FedEx US opens new cargo center at Tallahassee Regional Airport
Federal Express is operating from its new cargo facility at Tallahassee Regional Airport, the city of Tallahassee announced Wednesday. The expanded facility is on the eastern side of the airport complex, making it more convenient to the airport’s other cargo operations.
The construction project is part of the airport’s expanded USD 12 million cargo complex. TAC Tallahassee, a division of Titan Development Corp. of Rochester, Minn., built the 22,000-square-foot facility for FedEx for about USD 3 million, according to the city.
FedEx has been an airport tenant for more than 25 years and has a staff of more than 50 employees. The new FedEx building has an expanded package sorting area, new spaces for flight crews and ground employees, a vehicle and equipment maintenance area and customer service counter. In addition to the FedEx facility, the air cargo complex has a new aircraft-parking apron east of the Ivan Munroe Terminal, new cargo road with enhancements to Capital Circle Southwest and incorporates the existing Airline Cargo Building.

“FedEx has grown with the city,” Bolton said. When FedEx’s lease was ending, discussions with the city turned to space for expansion. The completion of the new facility was a collaborative effort between the city of Tallahassee, the airport, TAC Tallahassee and FedEx over the past two years.
