Fedex Express: another new facility in Ireland
Eight months after opening a new handling facility in Cork (photo), Fedex Express Europe has announced plans to build a new logistics facility in Dublin. Construction is scheduled to commence next January, and the facility is anticipated to become operational in early 2025.
Situated in the Horizon Business Park south of Dublin airport, it will serve as the Fedex headquarters in Ireland and will combine key operations, including a pickup and delivery station, aircraft operations, customs clearance teams, and other essential back-office functions.
The new facility will feature a warehouse covering 14,500 sqm, includes 30 loading bays for trucks and 137 loading bays for vans. It will also feature a variety of design considerations aimed at reducing the environmental impact of day-to-day operations. (ah)
