FedEx Express opens Mexican hub

   FedEx Express has opened the FedEx Hub Nacional Mexico distribution center, representing a $48-million investment from the company.
   Officials said the 70,000-square-foot development will serve as the center of operations in Mexico. The center will also include an automatic sorting system that can handle 13,500 packages each hour.
   “FedEx sees the potential that Mexico offers for our business and has invested nearly $160 million since 2011. If Mexican businesses increase their competitiveness and reach more markets, FedEx and its employees will benefit. It’s a win-win scenario and therefore, the company will continue to work and invest to accelerate trade in Mexico,” FedEx Express’ Michael Ducker said in a statement.
