TNT has opened a regional road hub in Wuhan, Hubei province, which will be managed by its wholly owned subsidiary TNT Hoau. The 47,000 sq metre hub in Wuhan Dongxihu Bonded Logistics Centre will enable TNT to reduce delivery times in the provinces of Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, Sichuan and Chongqing municipality by up to two days, at 10 per cent lower operational cost.

TNT plans to open 10 regional road hubs in China over the next five years, which the company sees as part of a much-needed rationalisation of its fragmented logistics industry.
