UPS expanding facility in Canada

UPS Canada said expansion of a strategic logistics campus in Burlington, Ontario, from 800,000 square feet to 975,000 square feet will support faster shipping turnaround for the local, national and international businesses it serves in the area.

UPS said the site is a "key central supply chain facility in Canada for major national retailers. Increasing e-commerce activity across Canada is driving customer requirements for post-sales service and returns management. The latest UPS expansion also is expected to support after-sales activity and critical parts inventory management for high-value technology components and computer products.

Services offered by this expanded facility will increase the efficiency of our customers' supply chains, said Jan Macaulay, vice president of business solutions for UPS Supply Chain Logistics.For us, involvement at the local level will remain a key aspect of our operations, and we look forward to a long, healthy and prosperous future in Burlington.
