FedEx has launched a new air cargo route between Dublin and Indianapolis, focusing on healthcare goods.
The route reduces transport times by one day, enhancing efficiency for high-value cargo, including pharmaceuticals.
FedEx’s Indianapolis and Memphis hubs are CEIV Pharma-certified, ensuring standards for temperature-controlled shipments.
Healthcare logistics generated €8.5bn in revenue for FedEx in FY 2025, with strong growth in Q1 2026.
The DUB-IND route supports FedEx’s Network 2.0 and DRIVE programs, aimed at expanding healthcare logistics capabilities.
Brie Carere shared: “The DUB-IND route is expected to move goods one day faster versus current options. Almost 50pc of the weight growth from a U.S. export perspective came from health care, airfreight, so our healthcare strategy is working there, too.”
