A FedEx veteran with nearly two decades of experience across the company, Thompson returns to the Philippines after serving as Managing Director of FedEx Indonesia for more than five years. He previously held leadership roles in the Philippines across sales and other functions, where he helped drive significant revenue growth and expand FedEx’s customer base.
In his new role, Thompson will lead more than 1,300 employees in the Philippines, with a focus on operational excellence, customer experience, and helping Philippine businesses expand their global reach through cross-border trade. He will also oversee the Asia Pacific Trade Facilitation Center, which manages customs clearance, trade compliance, and critical cargo documentation across key global markets.
His appointment comes as FedEx continues to strengthen its long-term investments in the Philippines, including the expansion of its Clark facility, a key transshipment gateway supporting regional connectivity and the company’s broader Southeast Asia growth strategy.
