Unbox Atlanta with UPS: How we are delivering for football fans
The world’s largest football tournament is taking over our hometown … and we are showing up in a big way. We have teamed up with Showcase Atlanta to bring football fans an ATL experience like no other by spotlighting local businesses that make our city special.
Our CEO Carol Tomé is co-chairing Showcase Atlanta, and we have tapped Renee Montgomery – former WNBA star turned powerhouse Atlanta Dream co-owner and entrepreneur – to help us spotlight standout UPS customers.
Check out these Atlanta-based small businesses we are proud to serve. They will be showing off their products and connecting with fans at the Invest Atlanta pop-up shops throughout the tournament:
