FedEx announced on Tuesday that it had completed the expansion of its location in Chengdu, Sichuan province.

The new complex is situated in the city's Shuangliu district and with an area of about 2,000 square meters, is the largest among all foreign express enterprises in Sichuan.

It consists of offices, a sorting area, security zone and a warehouse.

"Thanks to the new location, a maximum of about 1,700 parcels and documents can be sorted out each hour, compared with some 1,500 before," said Bao Xiangxin, a senior specialist with the China region corporate communications division of FedEx.

Designated by the State Council as a center of commerce and trade in Southwest China, Chengdu is one of the country's leading logistics centers.

Last year, more than 380 million pieces of express mail, parcels and documents were handled in Chengdu, representing an increase of nearly 26 percent over the previous year.
