Grand Prix driver Sebastian Vettel used a UPS Access Point to pick up his race helmet, gloves and cap before the Canadian Grand Prix at the start of this month.
UPS, the Official Logistics and Shipping Sponsor of Scuderia Ferrari, set up a special UPS Access Point pop-up location at Crescent Street Festival in Montréal, Canada, for the race weekend.
Ahead of the race at Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve, Scuderia Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel made the first pick-up of the weekend, showcasing the reliability and flexibility of the UPS Access Point network.
"UPS Access Point locations are a great idea for people like me who live very busy lives and need flexible solutions to pick up their packages," said Vettel. "Scuderia Ferrari constantly requires reliable logistics solutions to help us succeed, particularly for last minute requests at races like Canada which is between two European races."
"UPS Access Point locations continue to be added across Canada and we are nearing 1,000 locations," said Nicolas Dorget, UPS Canada vice president of strategic partnerships. "The event showcases how racing fans can utilise a UPS Access Point location as an alternate pick-up location for their packages when they are not able to receive them at home or work."
There are now over 19,000 UPS Access Point locations in Europe and the Americas and the company is well on course for its target of 20,000 locations by the end of 2015.
UPS became Official Logistics and Shipping Sponsor of Ferrari in February 2013, in a partnership encompassing Formula One, the FIA World Endurance Championship and the European Series of the Ferrari Challenge Championship. UPS is also Official Logistics Partner to Ferrari through the gradual integration of its own transport services, providing freight movement on a global level.
