Mexico’s Moment
“Mexico has enviable economic stability and a forecast for growth, improved
social mobility, and an emerging middle class.”
-The CS Monitor
» Free market economy in the trillion dollar class
» Contains a private sector dominated mixture of modern and outmoded industry and agriculture
» Expanded competition in seaports, railroads, telecommunications, electricity generation,
natural gas distribution, and airports
» Per capita income is roughly one-third that of the US; income distribution remains highly
unequal
» Since the implementation of the NAFTA, Mexico's share of US imports has increased from 7%
to 12%
»
More than 90% of trade under free trade agreements; including more than 50 Countries.

Multi-Modal, Multi-Client
Traditional Model
» Partnerships between truckers and customs brokers in the US and Mexico,
working without data correlation or visibility, resulting in problematic, finger-pointing
Improved 3PL Service Solutions
» Multi-Modal Options
• The Intermodal advantage – harmonized weight limits, cost benefits, and hassle
free
» Co-located customs brokerage groups
» Distribution centers near primary border crossings
• Consolidation and deconsolidation points
» Collaborative multi-client freight consolidation
• Opposites attract – finding the right with and cube mix to fill a box
• Green – reduced transportation demand = less fuel consumption
• Getting ahead of the tight capacity curve
