 PROFILE
Just plain brown has always been good enough for United Parcel Service (UPS), the world's #1 package-delivery company. Its familiar brown delivery vehicles roll throughout the US and more than 200 countries and territories. UPS is the leading ground-delivery firm and is gaining on rival FedEx in air delivery; it delivers nearly 14 million packages per day. Through UPS Logistics, the company is expanding its role in managing supply chain operations and logistics for corporations, and it has built a freight-forwarding business through acquisitions. UPS has also launched e-Ventures to develop operations supporting e-commerce. Managers, employees, retirees, and the founding families own 90% of UPS.
