UPS Saturday deliveries launched for small online retailers – tamebay

UPS Saturday deliveries are being introduced in the UK and seven other European countries (Germany, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Spain and Poland).

What’s particularly encouraging is that the new UPS Saturday deliveries offer businesses of all sizes, particularly smaller online retailers, a reliable and cost-effective option to reach their customers at the weekend. Often new services of this type are only accessible by larger retailers so for the UPS Saturday deliveries to be available to smaller online sellers is a big plus.

Dublin pilots van-free city centre deliveries with UPS – Cities Today

Dublin is trialling mini urban distribution centres and powered walkers and quad cycles to enable city centre deliveries that don’t contribute to local emissions or congestion.

The pilot is funded by Dublin City Council, Enterprise Ireland and Belfast City Council and the system was developed as part of a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) challenge, which sought new approaches to optimising deliveries.

Through this, design and manufacturing consultancy Fernhay developed the containers, bikes and walkers for global logistics carrier UPS to trial. The vehicles will enable workers to deliver goods such as groceries, medicine and parcels.
