UPS, the world's largest package-delivery company, will build its largest service sharing base in Asia-Pacific region in eastern China, local authorities said Saturday.

UPS has signed a memorandum of collaboration with the municipal government of Hefei, capital of Anhui Province, the city's publicity department said in a statement.

UPS is expected to start construction in August this year.

Richard Loi, vice-president of UPS Asia-Pacific, said the base will help improve efficiency as the company will outsource some un-core businesses.

The base will allow UPS to better focus on its core business, said Loi.
