For Transportadora Zemog, safety is part of a business strategy and its constant processes, which has been incorporated into the work culture and not only because of its slogan: “We transport safely.”
Focused on the beverage and food industries, summer is the period with the highest consumption for Zemog clients, and it is precisely the planning of this season that translates into maintaining that culture of quality.
“We see a lot of need in current clients, but we must be very analytical of the operations and needs they have, where we must see sections, routes, operations; We must understand that transport companies have limited resources,” César Aldana, general director of Zemog, commented in an interview with T21.
With a focus on institutional clients, the challenges for Zemog are that it faces demanding operations, where high investments in infrastructure are required, but also to maintain operating levels.
One of the advantages that Zemog takes advantage of is the experience of almost 30 years of service, and where they can make an accurate reading of the market demands, but also be able to identify the challenges faced in the industry.
“Our culture leads us to have safe operations in all processes. In this sense, the contribution of customers is fundamental, if we want to be efficient we need our customers to be efficient in their loading and unloading activities,” described Aldana.
Zemog’s strategy has various challenges, as happens with operators, where work must be constant, and with precise analytics that allow them to safely strengthen their processes.
“Today (property and road) security is an advantage in the market, but also a commitment that we assume at all levels,” said César Aldana.
One factor that has allowed it to maintain its progress aligned with its security policies is to grow hand in hand with its clients, where the model of offering tailored suits allows for precise growth planning.
DAF, ally of security policy
Recently, PACCAR Mexico announced that the first delivery of a unit of its DAF tractor truck in the country was for Zemog. César Aldana shared that when the brand’s directors visited him, he was one of the first carriers to raise his hand to have one of these models in his fleet.
“We are institutional with suppliers, we need good partners. The Mexican market has been filled with cab over units, that is why when we reviewed the renewal plans with PACCAR, the decision was made to incorporate DAFs,” recalled Aldana.
The DAF models with their cab over configuration are a solution for Zemog in its operations in large cities, “we operate in the metropolitan areas of Monterrey, Guadalajara and Mexico; where we have single and full operations (double trailers) of more than 100 kilometers per day, but in an environment of narrow roads and with these models we have a 2.5 meter advantage for maneuverability,” he added.
In addition to the configuration, Aldana specified that the DAF’s passive and active safety technology, such as proximity sensors, peripheral vision cameras , and other elements such as visibility and automatic transmission, were a factor in incorporating these models.
