Get Your Products to Market Faster
UPS Trade Direct®
Ocean provides a port-to-door and door-to-door delivery solution from ports in the U.S., Asia, Europe, and the Americas. This solution is designed for customers who want to simplify logistics management, reduce costs, and minimize the risk of loss or product damage.
By leveraging the breadth and reliability of the UPS global network, UPS Trade
Direct Ocean can remove days from your supply chain - delivering
goods from overseas directly to your customers' locations.
Based on purchase order allocation and distribution information,
your packages can be labeled and inserted directly into the UPS
package delivery network following arrival and customs clearance
in the destination country. Larger deliveries move by less-than-truckload
(LTL) service. This combination of services enables us to extend
your order fulfillment opportunities and improve your tracking
capabilities - making it faster and less expensive for you to
do business overseas.
