Since 2021, Grupo Marva ( Top 100 del Autotransporte® ) made the decision to venture into electromobility as a long-term strategy and contribute to the decarbonization of transport . Since then, various achievements have been recorded along the path set.
In 2022, Marva announced at Expo Transporte ANPACT the acquisition of the largest fleet of electric tractor trucks, through the alliance with BY Deléctrica , distributor of Chinese-origin BYD equipment.
In the strategic alliance with BY Deléctrica in 2023, the first charging hub for heavy equipment was installed , located in Tultitlán, State of Mexico, and which would serve to trace the route of the charging points in conjunction with Marva. Today there are charging facilities in Puebla, Salamanca (Gto.), Aguascalientes and Monterrey (NL).
Now in mid-November 2024, Marva has achieved the milestone of exceeding one million kilometers traveled with its fleet of 50 electric tractor-trailers, which translates into reducing 1,550 tons of CO2 into the environment.
Achieving this historic moment is the result of operating 130 thousand tons of different loads where it has achieved active collaboration with companies that have aligned interests with Grupo Marva, such as Ford , Hapag-Lloyd , Amazon , P&G , Nissan and Mercado Libre , where they have assumed an active role in the drive towards greener logistics.
“These types of collaborations not only benefit our clients, but also create a positive impact that extends to the whole of society. We are committed to continuing to promote this structural change,” said Manuel Lastiri, commercial executive of Grupo Marva.
With these results, Manuel Lastiri shared, “Transportes Marva also demonstrates that sustainable solutions are both viable and scalable, encouraging other companies to follow suit.”
For Marva, this achievement is only confirmation that it will continue on this path. For this reason, the company plans to expand its electric fleet and continue innovating in technologies that enhance the efficiency and sustainability of its operations.
“This is just the beginning of an ongoing effort to integrate responsible practices at every stage of the logistics chain. Our goal is not just to reduce emissions, we take on a role in inspiring the industry to adopt a more sustainable and progressive approach,” Manuel Lastiri emphasized.
In addition to the charging points that have been established, by the end of the year Marva expects to have two additional locations in Cuernavaca (Mor.) and Guadalajara (Jal.), with which it will be able to electrify more routes, by adding circuits and routes with the capacity of autonomy.
