Oui love the #UPSOfficeViews from #Paris.

✨ It's #NationalInternDay! ✨ This summer we had 302 interns join us to learn about all aspects of our business. Whether in our corporate office or operations, we love the energy and fresh perspectives of our interns. "My time at UPS has been a game-changer for me, building on my journalism background with new skills in corporate communications and strategic messaging. I consider myself lucky to have such supportive leadership. Their guidance has been crucial in boosting my confidence and preparing me to tackle future challenges with a well-rounded approach. Overall, this experience has truly shaped me into what we call a Comms Athlete." ~Yasmeen Akbar, Employee Communications Intern If you’re a past and present UPS intern, join the fun by dropping your favorite intern pictures or stories in the comments. 👇👇👇

Today we announced Q2 2024 consolidated revenues of $21.8 billion, a 1.1% decrease from Q2 of 2023. “I want to thank all UPSers for their hard work and efforts in the second quarter,” said Carol Tomé, UPS chief executive officer. “This quarter was a significant turning point for our company as we returned to volume growth in the U.S., the first time in nine quarters. As expected, our operating profit declined in the first half of 2024 from what we reported last year. Going forward we expect to return to operating profit growth.” Click the link in our comment to read more about our Q2 results.

We're excited to share that we’ve entered into an agreement to acquire Estafeta Mexicana! This deal will help businesses of all sizes take advantage of a Mexican manufacturing boom, shifting global supply chains, and growing North American trade. As the shift to nearshoring continues, the combination of UPS and Estafeta will give customers in Mexico unprecedented access to global markets with seamless service and greater efficiency. This deal is a key part of our ‘Better and Bolder’ strategy as we aim to become the no. 1 premium international small package provider and logistics provider.   When the two companies are combined, customers in Mexico and beyond can rely on UPS’s integrated solutions that link small package, healthcare logistics and end-to-end supply chain solutions, creating a differentiated ‘One UPS’ advantage. 🇲🇽 Check out the link in our comment for more details. 

Rachel Seevers is turning a family tragedy into a mission to keep others safe. Several years ago, a family member unexpectedly passed away from hydration issues. This experience fueled her determination to help her coworkers stay safe and hydrated. And it’s a big reason why she’s been a Safety Co-chair for the past five years. When it comes to preparing for work in the Florida heat, Rachel offers this advice: 📅 Hydrate over the weekend. 🍉🥒 Pack plenty of water, electrolytes, fruits and veggies for your workday. ⌚ Stay ahead of your needs. If you’re not good at paying attention to your body, set a timer to drink water. Visit the link in our comment to learn more about Rachel and our heat-beating blueprint for safety.

Ever wonder how you can buy a new kitchen utensil online as late as 10:59 p.m. and have it in your hand, ready to cook dinner the next day?   So did a reporter from Marketplace by APM, the nightly NPR business segment with a weekly audience of 5.3 million listeners.   At UPS’ Velocity warehouse near Louisville, Kentucky, 700+ Geek+ robots fill e-com orders and adjust inventory in real time, according to the popularity of items. The speed of Geekplus Shelf-to-Person smart robot technology paired with UPS' logistical expertise gets items from the warehouse to your doorstep in less than 24 hours.   Thomas Stearman, Velocity’s director of industrial engineering, calls it a dance.   We second your idea to put a disco ball in the warehouse.🪩🕺   #ecom #shelftoperson #inthenews #3PL #poppick UPS Supply Chain Solutions Listen to the full story here: https://lnkd.in/gYGguncH

When Sebastian needed a specialized battery-powered ATV to hike with the rest of his Boy Scouts troop, the UPS Supply Chain Solutions team used their expertise to get the vehicle cleared through customs quickly so Sebastian could hit the trails with his troop. 💪 "I didn't tell him it was being delivered today. When the truck pulled up and the driver handed him the invoice, he was so surprised he got rather emotional. This really means a lot to him and to our whole family!" ~Christa, Sebastian's mom
