FedEx launches new international time-limited delivery service to support cross-border e-commerce

FedEx has launched a new logistics service, FICP ( FedEx International Connect Plus) , to meet the logistics needs of e - commerce practitioners in Asia Pacific , the Middle East and Africa .

Today, businesses and retailers from markets such as China , Singapore , South Korea , Australia , Malaysia, India , Japan and Thailand can choose to use the service . FICP provides logistics services with 1-5 working days delivery for customers within Asia Pacific, the Middle East and Africa ( AMEA) .

In addition, FICP also provides many functions including logistics tracking , sending push notifications to recipients , and flexible change of delivery options , which undoubtedly improves the visibility , controllability and convenience of orders for e-commerce sellers' customers.

According to a survey by Deloitte , shipping costs and delivery methods are two important driving factors for consumers to abandon shopping behavior . If the shipping costs are too high, about 40% of consumers will not continue to pay ; if consumers think the delivery method is inflexible or the delivery time is not suitable , 10% of people will give up the shopping behavior .

The FICP service launched by FedEx has the following advantages :

Good quality and low price - This service allows enterprises to provide customers with more efficient logistics services at a lower cost . Customers can enjoy matching logistics services while purchasing attractively priced goods .

Flexible and controllable - In addition to home delivery, FICP service allows customers to pick up their packages from hundreds of available pickup locations nearby and change the delivery date and location.

Seamless integration – Online and offline shipping automation solutions allow e-commerce businesses to enjoy a paperless experience.

Visible Information - FedEx package tracking function enables e-commerce companies and customers to query relevant information throughout the delivery process .

Kawal Preet, President of FedEx AMEA, said: “ Building a strong e-commerce ecosystem is a strategic plan for FedEx . By providing companies with more types of logistics solutions, we can help them accelerate the development of cross-border e-commerce business and connect them with more online customers in the AMEA market . ”

It is reported that FedEx announced last month that it would add four new intercontinental routes across China , North Asia and the United States . These new routes enable its customers to fully explore the potential of cross-border e-commerce . As the epidemic situation improves and the economy in the Asia-Pacific region continues to recover , this will help build stronger intra-Asia, trans-Pacific and Asia-Europe trade flows .
