The Bajío region of Mexico is the epicenter of automotive manufacturing in North America, a highly demanding sector where every link in the supply chain must operate with pinpoint precision. In this ecosystem, Cherokee Logistics has once again demonstrated why it is the ideal strategic partner for the export industry . The Mexican firm has solidified its high-quality position by receiving two of the most prestigious international awards in the trucking industry.

For the fourth consecutive year, Cherokee was awarded the Penske Carrier Excellence Award , a testament to its operational consistency, punctuality, and adherence to global safety standards. Adding to this achievement is its recognition by JB Hunt as the “Best Intermodal Carrier 2025,” a distinction that validates the versatility, timely response, and reliability of its daily operations.

For the company, these awards reflect a business model that balances high efficiency with a deep commitment to the environment and people . Its value proposition is distinguished by operating a modern fleet comprised entirely of tractor-trailer trucks powered by compressed natural gas (CNG). This approach not only drastically reduces its carbon footprint but also aligns with international environmental audits and stringent border security protocols such as CTPAT certification.

“From the very beginning of Cherokee, we were clear that technological innovation and environmental responsibility should be the driving force behind our fleet. Validations from companies like Penske and JB Hunt demonstrate that transitioning to clean energy and investing in natural gas vehicle models does not disrupt the supply chain; on the contrary, it enhances the reliability that assembly plants demand today,” said Bernardo Cuevas, founding partner of the company.

For his part, Humberto Amador, also a founding partner, emphasized the brand’s sustainable evolution, stating, “Every international recognition and every kilometer traveled using natural gas brings us closer to the future of green logistics. This year we consolidated our operational excellence and reaffirmed our commitment to our clients and the Bajío region to continue conquering new territories in a clean and competitive manner.”

Additionally, the execution of this logistics strategy on the road relies on operational discipline . Julio Pérez, Operations Manager at Cherokee, pointed out that “maintaining intermodal excellence and CTPAT certification requires advanced telematics and impeccable customer service for our drivers. Punctuality and reliability on the road are the result of a team that monitors every detail in real time.”

With these credentials, Cherokee Logistics continues to chart the course for responsible efficiency in Mexico and North America.
