Courier Spotlight: UPS

UPS is the world's largest package delivery company, delivering 5.5 billion packages per year.

Created in Seattle in early 1907, Claude Ryan and Jim Casey founded what would become the world's largest package delivery service. What started as 'American Messenger Company', most deliveries were completed on foot or bicycle.

Six years later, the company made its first expansion beyond Seattle to California where the name United Parcel Service debuted.

In 1991, UPS was established in Australia, locating its head office in Sydney, New South Wales. Today, they employ 426 people in Australia.
