UPS synchronizes global commerce by offering unmatched technology, transportation
networks and capabilities. The company’s services including small package
delivery, heavy freight transportation and supply chain management as well as
trade financing and customs clearance help companies simplify international
trade, streamline worldwide operations and improve revenue.
Because of that, UPS is well positioned to meet the increasing demands of businesses
challenged by the new made-to-order, just-in-time supply chain. The company
offers superior time-definite worldwide delivery options, technology to provide
critical information and services to speed the flow of funds.
For example, UPS offers its customers unique services such as UPS Trade DirectSM,
which can blend the speed of express with the efficiency of freight and includes
advanced technology for visibility along the entire supply chain. This contract
service uses UPS freight to transport consolidated pre-labeled, small package
shipments internationally over land, sea or air and clear customs as a single
unit. Once in the destination country, the service can utilize the UPS express
network for delivery of individual packages to the final destination. The service
reduces warehousing, speeds goods to market and cuts costs.
