their promises to customers

FedEx Express and TNT know how critical the

aftermarket business is to the automotive industry.

That’s why we put your priorities at the heart of our

combined service. It’s a complex challenge, with

early morning deliveries, stock availability and supply

chain visibility all crucial. But we make even the most

complicated supply chains run seamlessly, maximising

vehicle uptime, workshop utilisation and customer

retention while reducing inventory levels, costs and the

time taken for services.
