Northbound Service Ideal for Less Urgent Shipments
UPS (NYSE: UPS) is introducing an economical ground option for shipping
small packages from Mexico to the United States.
Known as UPS Standard, this ground service offers business customers a
new tool for managing their transportation costs for less-urgent
packages. It launched on July 13.
“UPS Standard is a perfect complement to a UPS service portfolio that
provides customers multiple transportation options for their express and
deferred shipments,” said Griselda Hernandez, UPS Mexico country
manager. “With 85 percent of Mexico’s total exports bound for the U.S.,
it’s important to give businesses a range of reliable shipping choices
that cover this busy North American trade lane.”
By connecting the company’s extensive domestic networks in Mexico and
the U.S., UPS is able to offer a ground service between the two
countries that covers every address in Mexico and the continental U.S.
Packages shipped via UPS Standard will reach their final destinations
within 3-to-7 days. Other benefits include a money-back guarantee,
complete package visibility and free – often same-day – pick-up service.
UPS has operated in Mexico for 20 years, increasing its network to
include 70 operating centers and more than 2,000 employees while
expanding its extensive portfolio of service options. The UPS country
headquarters is located in Mexico City.
UPS (NYSE: UPS) is the world’s largest package delivery company and a
global leader in supply chain and freight services. With more than a
century of experience in transportation and logistics, UPS is a leading
global trade expert equipped with a broad portfolio of solutions.
