Description: UPS United Parcel Service September 26, 2025

United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE: UPS) is a global package delivery and logistics firm headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. It provides transportation and delivery services across a broad portfolio that includes air and ground freight, customs brokerage, insurance, and specialized solutions for healthcare and post-sale logistics.

The business is organized into two primary segments. The U.S. Domestic Package segment focuses on time-definite delivery of letters, documents, parcels, and palletized freight within the United States, leveraging both air and ground networks. The International Package segment operates small-package services in Europe, the Indian sub-continent, the Middle East and Africa, Canada, Latin America, and Asia, offering guaranteed day- and time-definite shipping, cross-border ground delivery, e-commerce contracts, and urgent palletized shipments, as well as air/ocean freight forwarding and contract logistics.

Key quantitative signals (FY 2023) include total revenue of roughly $91 billion, an operating margin of 7.5 %, and a 5 % year-over-year increase in e-commerce volume-driven by sustained online retail demand and the rollout of UPS’s “Air2” network for faster cross-border deliveries. The segment’s performance is highly sensitive to fuel price volatility (fuel accounts for ~5 % of total costs) and labor market tightness, which has pushed wage growth above inflation in the U.S. logistics sector. A strategic focus on electrifying the last-mile fleet (targeting 25 % of U.S. delivery vehicles to be electric by 2030) reflects broader industry pressure to reduce carbon intensity.
