New UPS distribution center in Taiwan doubles capacity, productivity

United Parcel Service on Wednesday unveiled its largest and most advanced logistics center in Asia Pacific, a nearly $100 million investment that demonstrates the company’s continued investment in critical infrastructure even as it downsizes its shipping network and reduces overall capital expenditures. The 872,000-square foot automated distribution center in Taiwan more than doubles UPS’s warehouse footprint in Taiwan. It is located three miles from Taoyuan International Airport, where shipments can reach global markets via 22 freighter flights UPS operates in and out of Taipei each week. UPS said the Taoyuan International Logistics Center will support high-value sectors such as semiconductors and medical technology.
