UPS is rolling out big changes to boost profits in 2026, even as Amazon shipments slow.
The company plans to cut 30,000 jobs, close 24+ facilities, and handle 1 million fewer Amazon parcels daily, aiming for $3 billion in savings. Automation now covers 68% of volume, with tech like RFID labeling speeding up operations.
Revenue is expected to stay flat at $89.7B, with growth focused on B2B, healthcare, automotive, and SMB deliveries. UPS also resumed its Ground Saver partnership with USPS and plans a new air hub in the Philippines.
