large corporations that use UPS for shipping have backups - my work has plans in place already to use FedEx and/or DHL if and when these kind of things occur.

smaller businesses would be negatively impacted but they would quickly shift to a different package carrier

Something like 6% of the GDP of the entire US passes through the UPS network. 6% of the economy can’t just switch to using a different company.
