FedEx Express has expanded its Stuttgart Air Gateway air cargo facility and commissioned a new sorter at the site.
In addition to more than tripling sorting capacity, the facility offers an almost fivefold increase in capacity for X-raying airfreight shipments.
The warehouse, which has been expanded from 800 sq m to 3,000 sq m, also enables better handling of freight and dangerous goods.
The expansion is further evidence of our growth strategy in Europe.
The expansion of the air gateway is the second major investment by FedEx Express in the Stuttgart region within a year.
In early summer 2022, the company opened a new facility in Nufringen. This location offers improved express services through later pick-up times and significantly expanded capacities.
The Stuttgart Air Gateway, which has been in operation since September 2012, is one of seven FedEx air cargo locations in Germany. FedEx’s largest air cargo location in Germany is the Air Hub in Cologne.
