United Parcel Service Inc. agreed to buy Mexican parcel carrier Estafeta as the package delivery giant tries to capitalize on a rise in nearshoring.
The acquisition is an expansion of a commercial agreement between the companies that was established in 2020, UPS said Monday in a statement. The company didn’t disclose financial terms of the deal, which is expected to close by the end of the year.
UPS is scheduled to report second-quarter earnings Tuesday.
