The UPS Store Now Officially Open

By Sid Riley
Packing and Shipping Are US
A crowd of well wishers, officials, and beauty queens assembled at the new UPS Store on Tuesday morning for the official ribbon cutting ceremony. Art Kimbrough with the Chamber, Jamie Streetman, head of the chamber’s Ambassador Group, and Tommy Lassman, current Chamber President all made short appreciative remarks prior to the cutting of the ribbon. Judy Williams, store owner also thanked everyone for their participation and support.
The new store, located across from Confederate Park in the midtown area, will provide a full range of packing and shipping services. This is a fully franchised UPS center. Judy Williams was required to spend two weeks in intensive training by UPS in Thomasville, Georgia and another two weeks at the Corporate Center in San Diego, California. The store will employ two full time and two part time associates. In total, the creation of the new store represents an investment of approximately $250,000 by Judy and Roger Williams.
We encourage the Jackson County community to support this new business.
