The facility, under FedEx Trade Networks Transport & Brokerage division, will be situated at Ras Bufontas Free Zone and will feature a state-of-the-art logistics office.
The MoU signing, attended by Sheikh Mohammed H. F. Al-Thani, CEO of QFZ, and Patrick Moebel, President and CEO of FedEx Logistics, took place during the Qatar Economic Forum. The new facility aims to support FedEx Logistics’ expansion and seamless integration into its global network, serving as a vital gateway for international cargo transition between Asia and Europe.
Located adjacent to Hamad International Airport and Qatar Airways, the facility offers enhanced access to air transportation and freight, efficient customs processing, convenience, and business growth opportunities in the region.
