ManEvery day, millions of business transactions speed across telephone wires, computer networks and wireless equipment. From moving huge cargo containers across the ocean to expediting customs paperwork at international ports to simply delivering a small package to a local neighborhood, we synchronize commerce for 8 million customers around the world each day.

While we delivered a record 3.9 billion packages in 2006, UPS is much more than a shipping company. By facilitating the flow of goods, information and funds, we help companies, large and small, thrive in today's increasingly competitive marketplace. Our business also benefits employees, shareowners and communities through wages, taxes, dividends and charitable contributions. Our goal is to run a financially sound business, in a socially responsible and financially sustainable manner, to ensure our ongoing ability to positively impact the stakeholders with whom we interact every day.

"We believe that running a strong and profitable business leads to greater opportunities for our customers, employees, shareholders and communities."

-- UPS Chairman and CEO Mike Eskew
