UPS Global


UPS Global

Along the crowded Ermou shopping district there darted a brown UPS truck. Not the same boxy ones we see in the USA, but it got the job done.

Ever since I read Tom Friedman's book, Longitudes and Latitudes, I have been facinated with the company. UPS is not just a delivery company; they are a global supply chain guru. They have the ability to do so many cool things from tracking packages world wide to helping coporate clients understanding the ups and downs of outsourcing. Not to mention they have their own fleet of jets!

I have posted about globalization in Greece a lot on this blog. With the likes of UPS, and others, this country continues to rapidly change.
