In a landmark project that set new standards in logistics infrastructure, SwissReal spearheaded the development of the FedEx Distribution Center, a facility meticulously engineered to meet the high-caliber demands of FedEx and Vancouver International Airport (YVR). This project not only underscores SwissReal's prowess in handling complex, bespoke developments but also marks our first venture in negotiating crucial business deals with YVR.
Lease & Collaboration
Initiated with a groundbreaking 30-year lease agreement extended by the airport authority and FedEx, this partnership was built on trust and mutual strategic interests. It showcased SwissReal's capability to secure long-term triple-net leases.
Bespoke Design
Designed and constructed to FedEx's stringent specifications, the facility features a state-of-the-art offloading area tailored for efficiently handling air cargo. This includes specialized taxiway and landing stay strips, accommodating the majesty of 747 aircraft within an expansive 250,000 sq ft space.
Innovative Solutions
The center boasts an intricate system of conveyors, ensuring seamless logistics operations. Additionally, it incorporates 23,000 sq ft of dedicated office space, with separate zones for testing and authority monitoring, highlighting our attention to detail and commitment to operational excellence.
Strategic Location
Positioned strategically at 3151 Aylmer Road, Richmond, this distribution center is a testament to SwissReal's ability to select and develop sites that complement and enhance our clients' operational efficacy and logistical reach.
