Fedex opens new Adelaide gateway
Fedex Express, a subsidiary of Fedex Corp., one of the world’s largest express transport companies, is launching its new Fedex Adelaide South Australian gateway to support the surging demand for air freight out of South Australia.
Adjacent to the Adelaide Airport, the new facility forms part of the planned freight and logistics hub for Adelaide Airport East Precinct, and features enhanced sorting and storage capabilities, supported by state-of-the-art technology.
The new Fedex Adelaide South Australian gateway spans approximately 64,000 sqm, more than double the size of the previous facilities combined and is equipped with 435 m conveyor belts and an advanced automated sortation system that can sort up to 10,000 packages per hour, four times the previous sorting capacity.
