UPS is investing more than $2 billion across its international, healthcare and supply chain businesses as it expands its global logistics network. The investments began in 2024 and will continue through 2028, with new facilities and network upgrades planned across Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Americas.
United Parcel Service is investing more than $2 billion across its International, Healthcare and Supply Chain Solutions businesses as it expands its logistics capabilities and responds to changing customer and trade requirements.
UPS said the investments began in 2024 and will continue through 2028, with projects spanning Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Americas. The company said the spending is aimed at improving speed, reliability, flexibility and connectivity for customers navigating changing trade routes, regulations and supply-chain conditions.
Among the projects underway is a new hub at Clark Airport in the Philippines, which is expected to open in the fourth quarter of 2026. UPS also plans to open a new facility in Barrie, Ontario, in 2027, followed by a new air hub at Hong Kong International Airport in 2028.
The investments also include healthcare logistics infrastructure. In June, UPS announced a $48 million investment in 27 temperature-controlled freight cross-dock facilities across key markets in the United States, Europe, Asia and the Americas. The facilities are designed to support the movement of temperature-sensitive healthcare products between air and ground transportation.
UPS said its recent investments are also strengthening its capabilities in sectors including healthcare, high technology, automotive and industrial manufacturing.
Kate Gutmann, UPS's executive vice president and president of International, Healthcare and Supply Chain Solutions, said customers increasingly require logistics services that provide greater visibility, speed and control. The company said its investments are intended to bring air, ground, brokerage and distribution services together while reducing handoffs and complexity.
The company is also expanding its Asia-Pacific network, including capacity and speed improvements to its intra-Asia air network. UPS said demand from healthcare, technology, industrial manufacturing and automotive sectors is supporting the expansion.
The investment programme builds on UPS's broader expansion of its healthcare logistics business. In June, the company said its 27 new temperature-controlled cross-dock facilities would strengthen its global cold-chain network, with facilities designed to maintain specific temperature requirements during transfers between transportation modes.
UPS operates a global logistics network serving customers in more than 200 countries and territories. The company reported $88.7 billion in revenue in 2025, according to its latest corporate information.
The multi-year investment programme highlights UPS's focus on expanding specialized logistics infrastructure while strengthening its international network and supply-chain services.
