But how did UPS become the world’s largest package delivery company and a global leader in supply chain services?
It all started in 1907 with a pioneering 19-year-old, who saw a unique set of business needs and expanded on a vision that has become a multi-billion-dollar corporation. Since then, our business growth has taken us from bike-messenger services and retail store deliveries to global freight and web-based tracking to innovative financial and mail services. At the heart of it all, you’ll find dedication to our people, our customers and the communities we serve. Click here to view our history.
Empowering careers and commerce around the globe takes more than the concerted efforts of innovative thinkers, collaborative teammates and incredible technology. It calls on the values, purpose and mission that have driven us right from the start.
