UPS expands in Slovakia with new distribution centre

UPS has announced plans to invest Sk 100 (EUR3.3 million) in building a new distribution centre in Trnava, Western Slovakia, to extend its presence in the country, Slovakian news agency TASR reported.

The new centre, about 50km east of the capital, Bratislava, will be operated by the UPS subsidiary Slovak Parcel Service (SPS). SPS will use the new facility to store consignments intended to reach the final customer on the next working day and to accommodate couriers. In total, 35 employees are expected to work in the centre, the agency reported.

Construction of the centre should start in December and be completed within six months.
