UPS gets close and personal

[ February 8, 2013   //   Chris ]

UPS has launched a new Access Point network in the UK as an alternative to home delivery for consumer customers. There is a choice of 600 delivery and return locations such as convenience stores, petrol stations and newsagents. It follows UPS’s purchase, in February 2012 , of Belgian-based business to consumer delivery specialist Kiala, which has 6,500 retail locations in France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and Spain; UPS is now deploying this model in the UK, and plans further European expansion with Germany set to follow later this year.
