Construction of the Clark Airport hub will begin in February next year and is expected to be operational late 2026.
The Clark Airport investment is the result of an agreement with the Luzon International Premiere Airport Development (LIPAD) Corporation and will allow UPS to strengthen its portfolio of integrated express, supply chain and healthcare logistics services.
Wilfredo Ramos, President of UPS Asia Pacific, says, “We have been doing business in our Philippines hub for more than 25 years, helping to connect businesses to markets in Asia Pacific and beyond. The investments UPS continues to make through this expansion will enhance time in transit across Asia Pacific and continue to deliver service reliability for our customers and position UPS for long term growth.”
Josephine Gotianun Yap, Chairperson of LIPAD, adds, “This partnership between UPS and LIPAD also represents a significant milestone in developing Clark as an ideal logistics hub for global brands aiming to establish or expand their international operations. LIPAD, which operates Clark International Airport, looks forward to welcoming UPS to its future location in Clark and supports its expansion in the Philippines.”
UPS has made a number of network and facility enhancements across Asia Pacific including announcing that it will open a new hub at Hong Kong International Airport by 2028 capable of handling one million tons of cargo annually.
