FedEx introduces next-business-day delivery service in China
FedEx said last week it will introduce next-business-day domestic express service in China, beginning on May 28.

The company said this service will function as a part of its international express service and will connect businesses within China and throughout the world, adding that FedEx currently connects more than 90 percent of China's GDP internationally through its global network.

According to Logistics Management, a major driver for this service was that up to 90 percent of its international customers have expressed interest in domestic freight forwarding services.

"The potential of our domestic-only customer base is enormous, and growing," said the spokeswoman. "[Shippers] will benefit from a comprehensive reliable service offering to, from and within China-all under the trusted FedEx brand with custodial control."

Through this air network, FedEx is offering next-business-day domestic express service to 19 cities in China, and time-definite service to more than 200 cities.

The next-business-day domestic express service will include a hub-and-spoke system at the Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport in the Zhejiang provincelinks of East China. This hub, according to the company, will have the ability to sort up to 9,000 packages per hour.
