At a very early age, Adrián Gallegos, current Commercial Director of Gallegos Trailers and member of the ninth generation of Los 21 Jóvenes de T21 , began his career in the family business in the warehouse area, a place where he cut his teeth and where he also flourished. his passion for the freight transportation industry.
Once graduated, he took the reins of the commercial area of the company dedicated to the manufacture and repair of trailers and semi-trailers for cargo transportation , but his interests have also extended to many other areas of the company. Although Gallegos Trailers has a good work team, for Adrián it is important to be fully involved in the business.
For him, one of the company’s greatest leaps throughout its history has been doubling its production capacity, going from two manufacturing plants that manufactured around 150 units per month, to four plants that today allow Gallegos Trailers meet the needs of transporters .
“Currently in our plant number three we manufacture dry boxes and platforms, in addition, we started the year with a new line for manufacturing refrigerated boxes that joined the Gallegos Trailers product portfolio. In turn, the fourth plant, which was opened a few months ago, is dedicated to the manufacturing of aluminum products, which will strengthen our production capacity, along with plant two, which is also dedicated to this product,” he explained in an interview. Gallegos.
Currently the company has the installed capacity to manufacture 350 trailers per month, however, with the entry into operations of the fourth plant this will increase to 500 per month in the short term.
“ The plan by the end of the year is to reach 700 units that will be distributed in Mexico, the United States, Central and South America . It should be noted that in 2023 we will open a distribution center in Laredo, Texas, with the aim of providing confidence to our American customers,” Gallegos reported.
The Canadian markets are joined by the aforementioned markets; to date Gallegos Trailers already has permits to send equipment, since they already comply with all the documentation. “We have realized that this market has a lot of potential, that is why we have adhered to the required regulations and we have even decided to standardize these for the American market because the Canadian market is much more demanding,” he said.
