UPS, a global logistics leader, announced expansion of its UPS Worldwide Express package service in Saudi Arabia, through EIRAD, its authorized service contractor.
This new service claims to create an earlier guaranteed-delivery option for customers in Saudi Arabia, who previously had only end-of-day guarantees.
“UPS Worldwide Express service offers guaranteed delivery on the next possible business day by 10:30 a.m., noon or 2 p.m. depending on the destination,” the company stated, adding that this move follows last year’s expansion of the service.
UPS says it already delivers more packages internationally than any other carrier. This expansion of UPS Worldwide Express service will give customers, especially those with time-sensitive shipments, the guaranteed time-of-day deliveries they need to thrive as international trade continues to grow.
Jean-Francois Condamine, UPS’ president for the Middle East, Indian Subcontinent, and Africa, said: “Saudi Arabia is a large economy with a growing middle class and continues to be a key market for us in the region. The expansion of our services demonstrates our long-term commitment to our valued customers in Saudi Arabia. UPS Worldwide Express service now gives customers more options to reach other key global markets.”
The service, now available to 88 countries and territories, is part of the broader UPS Express portfolio, which offers three guaranteed time-of-day delivery options that include customs clearance. The UPS Express portfolio features include Express Plus for early-morning delivery to 27 countries, Express for Midday Delivery to 88 countries and territories, and Express Saver for end-of-day delivery to 220 countries and territories.
“Individuals and companies of all sizes can use the UPS Worldwide Express service, but it is particularly beneficial to those with urgent international shipments, such as companies in the fast-paced high-tech, retail and industrial manufacturing industries. Along with other UPS offerings, these services support the rise of global e-commerce,” the company stated.
