Read the first time January 31, 2007.
To whom was referred a Concurrent Resolution (S. 351) to commemorate the centennial anniversary of the United Parcel Service of America and to recognize its many lasting contributions, etc., respectfully
That they have duly and carefully considered the same and recommend that the same do pass:
ROBERT W. LEACH, SR. for Committee.
TO COMMEMORATE THE CENTENNIAL ANNIVERSARY OF THE UNITED PARCEL SERVICE OF AMERICA AND TO RECOGNIZE ITS MANY LASTING CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA.
Whereas, on August 28, 2007, the United Parcel Service (UPS) will celebrate its one hundredth anniversary; and
Whereas, the corporation has served South Carolina since February 1967 and today employs over 5,700 South Carolinians and operates 36 facilities across the State; and
Whereas, UPS executes many large operations from South Carolina locations, including its southeast regional air operation from the Columbia airport, its brokerage operation in Aiken, its regional call and sales center in Greenville, and its corporate billing/cash on delivery site in Columbia; and
Whereas, each day, over 90,000 businesses and citizens of South Carolina utilize the express delivery and specialized transportation and logistics services offered by UPS; and
Whereas, connecting people, communities, and businesses, UPS delivers more than 195,000 packages each day to customers across South Carolina; and
Whereas, the expansive transportation network synchronizes global commerce by providing services to connect South Carolina to more than 200 foreign countries; and
Whereas, UPS has contributed more than 1.9 million dollars to philanthropic endeavors in the State of South Carolina since 1995, reflecting the company's emphasis on community service and citizenship; and
Whereas, UPS will undoubtedly continue to have a strong impact on the South Carolina economy and will continue to grow in importance to our State by cultivating deep partnerships with the communities it serves. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, commemorate the centennial anniversary of the United Parcel Service of America and recognize its many lasting contributions to the State of South Carolina.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the United Parcel Service.
