FedEx Trade Networks, the freight forwarding arm of FedEx Corp., has started operations in Glasgow, Scotland, as part of its ongoing expansion initiative.
This is the third FedEx Trade Networks office to open in the United Kingdom and will offer customers increased access to major global markets and the company’s range of forwarding services. The other two U.K. offices are located in Manchester and London.
“Glasgow is an important transport hub for the textile, automotive and technology sectors and its port structure and network of road and railways offer multiple import and export options,” said Fred Schardt, chief executive officer and president of FedEx Trade Networks. “This new office will provide customers enhanced access to the whole of Europe and increase connectivity worldwide.”
As part of the company’s global expansion initiative, which began in 2008, FedEx Trade Networks has opened a total of 51offices around the world.
