UPS Says It Can Handle Both Vaccine Rollout, Holiday Parcel Rush - MSN
United Parcel Service Inc. says it has the capacity to handle both the rollout of coronavirus vaccines and an unprecedented holiday package rush this month following investments in automation, tracking technology and dry-ice production.
The courier is the primary end-to-end distributor for Pfizer Inc.’s vaccine, as well as for kits to prepare the shots and dry ice shipments to keep the inoculations at extremely cold temperatures, UPS sales chief Kate Gutmann said in an interview. The vaccine and kits will have tracking devices that allow shipments to be monitored at all times.
“We’re planning enough capacity on the ground and in the air to make sure that there is no limit around the UPS side,” Gutmann said.
