| 摘要： | LAST MONTH, one global Atlanta-based company purchased a smaller Atlanta-based one, with freight transportation and logistics titan UPS announcing it entered into an agreement to acquire Roadie, an on-the-way delivery service with the nation's largest local same-day footprint. UPS officials declined to disclose the value of the transaction, which is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of this year. And they explained that the company's customers, which include large enterprise shippers, are more frequently looking for local same-day delivery services for all types of goods, rather than traditional packages. UPS said that Roadie also provides service for shipments that are not compatible within the UPS network, given specific shipment characteristics such as size and perishable nature, with those goods often in shopping bags and lacking the required packaging to move throughout the UPS network. |
