Rising customer demand in Taiwan has seen FedEx Express has opened a multi-function facility in the Taoyuan Free Trade Zone to cope with rising customer demand in the fast growing region.

The facility covers 306.4 square metres and complements the nearby FedEx Taiwan Transshipment Center located at Taoyuan International Airport near Taipei.

Michael Chu, managing director of FedEx Taiwan, said the facility allowed FedEx "to better respond to the enormous potential of the Taoyuan FTZ."

FedEx continues to expand its presence in Taiwan, aiming to provide more reliable and efficient service to its customers.

FedEx has 18 regional distribution centres in major cities across Asia Pacific, which specialise in express cross-docking operations, critical inventory logistics and customised logistics operations.

With the advantages of the integration of an air cargo park within Taoyuan FTZ, as well as the proximity to the Taipei airport, FedEx's new investment aims to create a competitive edge for customers in Taiwan as they increase their presence in the global market.
