Twenty-two years ago, trade between Mexico and the United States was constantly growing. Logistics, however, operated with fragmentation, low visibility, and limitations in responding to demand. 

At that starting point , Zaro Transportation began , driven not by certainties, but by the need to organize, make efficient and provide reliability to a key operation in the cross-border crossing .  

Zaro started its engines with an objective that would mark its development: to provide certainty and reliability in cross-border transport, under an approach of closer support to the customer.

The beginning was modest. Four tractor-trailers and a small team. But from that point, the operation began to take shape with a logic of sustained growth. 

In 2009, the creation of RAM Trucking strengthened its presence in the United States. By 2012, the company had established itself as the number one carrier for LEGO, a milestone that reflected its operational capabilities in a demanding environment.  

In 2017, the team exceeded 500 employees and, in 2018, the adoption of a flat organizational structure, based on self-management teams, allowed for a more agile response to market needs. 

The operation continued to expand. In 2022, Zaro reached more than 20 million miles traveled , and in 2025 it strengthened its infrastructure with a new distribution center in Laredo, Texas, consolidating its position in one of the main hubs of cross-border trade. 

Anticipate the operation 

Over the years, market demands have also changed. It’s no longer just about moving cargo, but about doing so with greater control, less uncertainty, and the ability to anticipate future needs. 

Under that premise, the company is moving towards a predictive logistics model , where the use of data and technology allows for anticipating risks, optimizing transit times and improving decision-making.  

Its technological platform integrates real-time visibility, process automation, and access to critical shipment and delivery information, elements that directly impact the operational efficiency of its clients.  

This approach is based on an operation that combines constant monitoring, 24/7 attention and security standards in door-to-door services between Mexico and the United States .  

Added to this is an organizational structure designed to respond with specialization and speed, in an environment where every operational adjustment directly impacts the supply chain. 

The human element is also part of that equation. Investment in the development of operators remains a cornerstone of the operation, while the company incorporates sustainability criteria backed by certifications such as B Corp and EcoVadis  assessments  .  

Today, 22 years after its founding, Zaro’s scale reflects that evolution: more than 300 units in operation, more than 20,000 annual trips and coverage in more than 45 frequent destinations, with experience in more than 150 destinations in Mexico and the United States.  

The next stage is already underway. The focus remains on strengthening technological capabilities , expanding infrastructure, and consolidating a model where anticipation becomes a key operational element. 

Because at the Mexico-United States border crossing, where efficiency defines competitiveness, the difference is no longer just in moving cargo… but in understanding what comes before it happens.
