FedEx opens new distribution facility in Medley

Nov 20, 2009 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- FedEx Ground, the small-package ground delivery unit of FedEx, has opened a new distribution facility in Medley, Florida.

The company has said that the 217,015sqft operation is double the size of the facility that it replaces, which also was located in Medley.

The $59 million facility is part of the company's expansion plan and is expected to provide processing rates of up to 15,000 packages per hour, additional load and unload doors, more scan tunnels and sorters.



Bob Holcombe, vice president of the southern division of FedEx Ground, said: "Our new Miami facility is a reflection of our ongoing commitment to increase size, speed and efficiency of our network. For shippers, the benefit is faster and more efficient movement of their packages through the FedEx Ground network." http://www.datamonitor.com Republication or redistribution, including by framing or similar means, is expressly prohibited without prior written consent.
