About United Parcel Service, Inc.
About United Parcel Service, Inc.
UPS generated $88.7 billion in total revenue during 2025, averaging 20.8 million packages per day across more than 200 countries and territories through two package segments—U.S. Domestic Package and International Package—plus a Supply Chain Solutions division. The company employs approximately 460,000 people; nearly 80% of U.S. employees are unionized, primarily under the International Brotherhood of Teamsters.
Revenue flows through a single integrated air-and-ground network handling every package service type—air, ground, domestic, international, commercial, and residential—from a common pickup infrastructure. Amazon.com, Inc. represented approximately 10.6% of consolidated revenues in 2025, though UPS publicly committed to reducing that customer's volume by more than 50% by June 2026 from 2024 levels, requiring concurrent reductions in facilities, vehicles, aircraft, and headcount. SMB penetration exceeded 30% of total U.S. volume in 2025. The healthcare portfolio—expanded through the January 2025 acquisition of Frigo-Trans and the November 2025 acquisition of Andlauer Healthcare Group—generated more than $11 billion in revenue. Fuel costs represent a significant operating input; the company's pricing strategies include fuel surcharges and the company has historically utilized hedging, though if surcharges cannot be maintained, higher fuel costs may weigh on operating results.

UPS operates under several collective bargaining agreements with near-term amendable dates. The Teamsters national master agreement covering most U.S. hourly workers does not expire until July 31, 2028, providing near-term labor cost certainty. However, the Independent Pilots Association contract became amendable September 1, 2025, and the Teamsters Local 2727 agreement covering approximately 2,000 airline mechanics becomes amendable November 1, 2026. The 10-K notes that past strikes caused customers to permanently redirect volume, and labor cost terms also affect competitive pricing flexibility.
