UPS stretches ‘afternoon’ to midnight with return to delivery guarantees – The Loadstar

The two large US integrators have moved to bring back delivery guarantees to the parcel sector.

Within a day of each other, UPS and FedEx announced service guarantees for overnight air products and international parcel shipments.

However, at least in UPS’s case, the guarantee for afternoon deliveries has been diluted by stretching the window beyond general notions of what constitutes an afternoon – these deliveries are deemed timely if they arrive by 11:59pm, local time.

Previously the threshold was 3pm in many cases, for some it was noon, commented John Haber, CEO of parcel consultancy Spend Management Experts.

CanadianSME Small Business Foundation announces the launch of UPS Small Business of the Day Campaign. – Yahoo

CanadianSME today announced a new campaign that is intended to help small business owners in every way possible in association with their corporate partner UPS.

It’s no surprise that small businesses are the ones that were most impacted by the pandemic. While the government has provided Canadian small businesses with resources and funding to help them during these challenging times, it’s still not enough for them to keep their business running successfully. That is the reason why it’s now more important than ever to help Canadian SME owners and provide them with resources and funding so that they can come out successful on the other side of the pandemic.
