UPS’s employees are quite likely to go on strike on August 1st. This means the majority of UPS operations will shut down. Considering UPS ships 24 million packages daily (about 6% of the nation’s gross domestic product), the consequences will be catastrophic. The good news is both UPS and its employees are highly motivated to avoid this situation.
Regardless of our hoping for good news, it is critical to take this seriously. Customers see this news every day. This could affect customers’ purchasing decisions—which affects your revenue. And, even if you utilize a different carrier like FedEx or USPS, it is unlikely that they will be able to handle shipments without delays, either.
This video and the corresponding article (https://swiftotter.com/technical/merc...) are here to help you take some pre-emptive action in order to reduce the interruption this impending strike has on your business. Joseph Maxwell brings you a 3-step plan that is easy and brings some new ideas to the table, including looking at options like ShipperHQ to help you through this. This plan will address how to do it on both Adobe Commerce/Magento and BigCommerce.
