FedEx Express leases these facilities from the Memphis-Shelby County Airport Authority (the “Authority”). The lease obligates FedEx Express to maintain and insure the leased property and to pay all related taxes, assessments and other charges. The lease is subordinate to, and FedEx Express’s rights thereunder could be affected by, any future lease or agreement between the Authority and the U.S. government.
FedEx Express has additional major international sorting-and-handling facilities located at Narita Airport in Tokyo and Stansted Airport outside London. FedEx Express also has a substantial presence at airports in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Dubai. TNT Express operates a central air hub near Liege, Belgium and a central European road hub in Duiven, The Netherlands. During 2020 we substantially completed projects across our European hub and station locations that allow interoperability between the ground networks for both FedEx Express and TNT Express packages. We expect to complete the final phase of international air network interoperability in early calendar 2022. See “Item 1. Business” under “FedEx Express Segment—International Expansion” for additional information on the integration of TNT Express.
