UPS to reduce transit times for shipments to and from Romania

UPS, a global leader in logistics, announced a number of improvements to its network and infrastructure that reduce transit times for shipments to and from Romania. Romanian customers shipping to destinations in Poland will now benefit up to one day faster time in transit for their goods.

“For any business looking to grow their customer base and stay competitive, one day makes a big difference, especially to small businesses that are just starting out,” said Yannick Mooijman, managing director of UPS Hungary, Greece, Romania & Slovenia. “Those small businesses form the backbone of the Romanian and Polish economies, with export and import volumes between these countries growing year on year. By connecting Romanian businesses with our smart global logistics network, we offer another way for them to optimize their cross-border supply chains.”

According to the 2019 UPS Pulse of the Online Shopper study, 38% of global online shoppers will abandon their cart if they feel the delivery cost was higher than anticipated.

The recent enhancements to UPS’s service are part of the company’s two billion USD investment in its European network and infrastructure.
