UPS to reduce Ireland-Switzerland delivery times by 48 hours

Parcels carrier UPS says it has shaved up to 48 hours off deliveries between Ireland and Switzerland through enhancements to its ground network. Packages can be delivered up to 48 hours faster on its standard service to 60% of consumers in Switzerland.
