Lucio Tan Group, FedEx tie-up looms

The Lucio Tan Group of Companies (LTGC) is set to enter into an alliance with Airfreight 2100 Inc., the sole licensee of Federal Express, the world’s largest air transportation company, for the group’s logistical requirements.

This alliance will enable LTGC to tap the worldwide service networks of FedEx and enhance the group’s competitiveness in today’s eCommerce marketplace. Other benefits foreseen in this tie-up include the reduction of unnecessary high inventory levels, reduced warehousing costs, and enhanced customer service for LTGC.

On the other hand, Airfreight 2100 Inc./FedEx, would be able to capture a huge chunk of the logistical business requirements of LGTC – a business conglomerate, which has diverse investments in various industries such as hotel, distillery, travel, banking, and food products among others.

Being FedEx’s global service partner in the Philippines for years Airfreight 2100 Inc. handles 100 percent of FedEx’s pick-up and delivery operations in the country.

Headed by Alberto D. Lina as chairman, the company is driven by the same passion to provide its clientele with world-class service and modern solutions for all their shipping needs.

Meanwhile, Federal Express connects areas that generate 90 percent of the world’s gross domestic product in 24 to 48 hours with door-to-door, customs-cleared service and money-back guarantees.

The company’s unmatched air route authorities and infrastructure make it the world’s largest express transportation company, providing fast, reliable, and time-definite transportation of more than 3.3 million items to 211 countries each working day.
