UPS (NYSE: UPS) today announced Executive Vice President and Chief
Commercial Officer, Alan Gershenhorn, has chosen to retire
effective June 2018, after 38 years of UPS service.
Gershenhorn’s extensive responsibilities include leading
corporate strategy, mergers and acquisitions, marketing, public
affairs, communications, and several key growth strategies across
the enterprise. He also has oversight for Coyote, UPS’s
truckload brokerage business, and for Marken, the company’s
specialty clinical trials and healthcare logistics unit. Previous

management, marketing research, other company-wide staffs and
initiatives.
“Alan’s tremendous impact on UPS is widely known and respected,
inside the company and among our global customers, partners and
other stakeholders,” said David Abney, UPS chief executive
officer. “Alan guided UPS to intensify creation of
distinctive customer value and positioned us as a premium service
provider who creates revenue-generating insights that help
customers succeed. During his tenure UPS introduced
industry-leading new products, solutions and commercial innovations
that pioneered the ecommerce era and the customer-centric B-to-B
and B-to-C strategies that define UPS’s market presence today.”
He led, and has been a part of, numerous transformational
programs helping to reshape UPS from a $3 billion U.S.-centric
ground small package delivery company, when he joined UPS in 1979,
to a more than $60 billion leader in global supply chain and
logistics solutions.
Gershenhorn first joined the UPS Management Committee in 2007 to
serve as president of UPS International where he was responsible
for the UPS international package, freight forwarding, customs
brokerage, and logistics businesses.
He has served in several other significant leadership positions

integration of Mail Boxes Etc. (now recognized as The UPS Store);
the president of UPS Canada; the president of UPS Supply Chain
Solutions (SCS) Global Transportation and Shared Services; and the
president of UPS SCS operations in Europe, Asia, the Middle East,
