From October 12th to October 13th, 2023, more than 30 representatives from CGCC member companies came together in Memphis, Tennessee, to take part in a visit to FedEx’s company headquarters.
The trip gave members the opportunity to learn more about the impressive work of FedEx, meet with company executives, experience the FedEx World Hub and Memphis’ unique local culture.
The visit began with an introduction to FedEx Logistics by Mr. Allan Brown, Senior Vice President and General Counsel of FedEx Logistics.
During this session, CGCC members also had the honor to hear from Richard Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer, Airline and International at FedEx.
A highlight of the trip for many was a behind-the-scenes tour of FedEx’s World Hub, where members were given a taste of how FedEx is able to deliver millions of packages across the globe.
The trip ended on October 13th with a special breakfast and an impressive presentation by Mr. Ted Townsend, President & CEO of the Greater Memphis Chamber of Commerce, where members learned about the overall local business environment and potential investment opportunities.
CGCC sincerely thanks Wally Hsueh and Andrew Russell from the FedEx team for helping to organize a successful trip and providing members with an unforgettable experience.
