UPS Store grand opening set March 2

CRESTVIEW — Owners Alex and Adele Barthe' are excited about The UPS Store's March 2 grand opening. The former One Stop Mail, at 2260 S. Ferdon Blvd., is going through more than just a name change, they said. 

"We are in the business of saving people time, and with shipping prices direct from UPS, we can save them money as well," Alex Barthe' said.

Services will include shipping from the smallest packages to palletizing and truckloads of items. The store also offers enhanced printing capabilities and has a graphic artist on staff.

In addition to domestic and international shipping, The UPS Store offers full-service packaging; digital and online printing; black-and-white and color copies; document finishing (binding, laminating, etc.); printing services (business cards, letterhead, rubber stamps, etc.); notary; custom crating and shipping for large items (furniture, artwork, motorcycles, etc.); mailbox and postal services; office and packaging supplies; and more.

The store's hours are 8 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays.

Activities planned for the 8 a.m. March 2 opening include a Crestview Area Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting and blessing by Pastor Douglas Compton of New Life International Worship Center.

Alex is retired from the United States Air Force. Adele is a Registered Nurse at North Okaloosa Medical Center. Alex and Adele have been franchisees with The UPS Store for over eight years, with two additional locations. One is behind Longhorn Steak House on Mary Esther Cutoff in Fort Walton Beach and the other is at the Main Exchange on Eglin Air Force Base.
