UPS Once Again "America’s Most Admired"
For the 20th consecutive year, UPS (NYSE:UPS) has been rated “America’s Most Admired” company in its industry in a survey conducted by FORTUNE magazine.
UPS also was ranked in the top 10 nationwide across all industries on four of the eight attributes used to compile the rankings.
The company scored in the Top 10 for the quality of its management; its financial soundness; the quality of its products and services, and its commitment to social responsibility. Within its industry category, UPS ranked No. 1 in each of those four attributes as well as in rankings for its employee talent and use of corporate assets.
The complete rankings for each industry segment appear in the March 3rd issue of FORTUNE and are based on a poll of 10,000 senior executives, directors and analysts. UPS joins companies like Wal-Mart, Procter & Gamble, General Electric and Johnson & Johnson at the top of their industries. Details were posted today on FORTUNE’s web site.
The FORTUNE recognition comes just one week after the release of the latest Harris Interactive Corporate Reputation Survey, in which UPS was ranked No. 4 in the country for the public’s perception of its corporate reputation. UPS followed Johnson & Johnson, Harley-Davidson and Coca-Cola in that survey.
UPS, which has built one of the world’s best known brands, operates in more than 200 countries and territories around the world and has been widely recognized in recent years for its expanding role in enabling global commerce. UPS stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange (UPS) and the company can be found on the Web at UPS.com.
