FedEx Lands Major Expansion at Bengaluru Airport

Federal Express Corporation (FedEx) is set to expand its footprint in India with a new 60,000 sq. ft. integrated hub at the AI-SATS logistics park, Kempegowda International Airport, Bengaluru.

This development complements the airport’s plan to nearly double its annual cargo handling capacity to one million tonnes, further establishing Bengaluru as a key export gateway for India. The facility, capable of processing 4,000 packages per hour, incorporates advanced systems such as automated processing, mechanized conveyors, and a high-speed dynamic dimensioning machine for efficient handling of time-sensitive shipments.

Suvendu Choudhury, FedEx VP of India operations, noted that the hub enhances India’s logistics capabilities by integrating intelligent processes with advanced automation, expanding global market access for businesses. “This new hub strengthens our India network, enabling businesses of all sizes to connect with global markets more confidently,” he said. The facility is expected to support sectors including pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, and high-value exports, contributing to India’s export-driven growth objectives.
