100-Year UPS,“Swifter”Olympics

As the official logistics and express delivery sponsor of 2008 Beijing Olympics,UPS will manage all logistical operations at the Olympics Test Events(formally known as"Good Luck Beijing Events")and the actual Games through which majority of equip- ment used at the events will flow. Is UPS really ready? That’s what the media both at home and abroad most con- cerned. The answer is"Yes".So far,UPS has already place a team of over 100 staff at venues of"Good Luck Beijing Events".A year later when the Games began,this figure will grow to over 2000 to make the Games"Swifter"."Synchronizing the world of commerce",as its slogan says, UPS have become a household name around the world.Almost anyone who’s ever seen a brown truck roll into a driveway knows there’s something different about UPS. On August 8,a year count-down to the 2008 Olympics,UPS Chairman and CEO Mike Eskew attended the formal ground- breaking ceremony for the UPS International Air Hub in Shanghai. August 28 marks the 100th birthday of UPS,the world’s larest package delivery company,the eighth largest airline and a global leader in supply chain services. Taking this opportunity,China’s Foreign Trade had a written interview with Mr.Li Songjiang,Senior Vice President of UPS Great China Region. By Editor
