FedEx improves Hong Kong freight service
FedEx Express has enhanced its FedEx International Priority Freight service, enabling shipments to be delivered to their destinations in Hong Kong before noon. The noon delivery commitment – is applicable to shipments 68kg or above – is the “earliest in the market”, according to FedEx, offering customers “faster access to the Hong Kong and Greater China marketplaces”.
Anthony Leung, managing director, FedEx Hong Kong and Macau, said: “FedEx is focused on offering best-in-class service that enables customers to capture business opportunities faster.
“The improved delivery time of the FedEx International Priority Freight service gives customers a competitive advantage in accessing the market, and more time for them to organize and redistribute their goods.”
Earlier this month Post&Parcel reported that FedEx had introduced FedEx International First, a premium service that delivers extra urgent shipments by 10am to Eastern and Southern China, and Singapore.
In 2010, FedEx introduced direct flights from Hong Kong to the FedEx Super Hub in Memphis, Tennessee, US, and from Hong Kong to its European hub in Paris, France.
Using Boeing 777 Freighters, the direct flights improved call-in cut-off time to 18:18 and offer greater payload capacity for customers shipping from Hong Kong to the US and Europe.
