Transportation Infrastructure
- The new FedEx Mid-Atlantic Air Hub - an almost 1 million square-foot facility - is operating at the Piedmont Triad International Airport.
- The new FedEx Hub is the company's fifth major U.S. air cargo hub. The Hub is capable of sorting 24,000 packages per hour.
- Some business advantages enhanced through a close location to a FedEx Hub are the ability to meet higher customer service expectations, have a more ambitious inventory strategy, focus more on supply chain optimization, ship to and from a variety of domestic or worldwide locations and have more shipping flexibility overall.
- The current FedEx operation is one of the original 11 distribution centers the company established 25 years ago. FedEx currently employs more than 250 workers in Greensboro area facilities.
- A third parallel 9,000 ft runway also is under construction at Piedmont Triad International Airport to accommodate the FedEx operation.
