<p><span dir="auto">Last February, </span><a href="https://www.sti.com.mx/"><span dir="auto">Super Transporte Internacional (STI)</span></a><span dir="auto"> reached </span><strong><span dir="auto">its first 33 years</span></strong><span dir="auto"> of operation, where all the knowledge of its founders, who have a little more experience in the motor transport industry, is imprinted.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">And although this anniversary was achieved in a complex industry cycle, the experience of its management team and its collaborators, as well as </span><strong><span dir="auto">the company&#8217;s fundamentals</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , have been key to </span><strong><span dir="auto">overcoming a challenging 2025</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , and remaining </span><strong><span dir="auto">solid in the face of an uncertain 2026</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , but one that promises a better scenario.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“2025 presented us with a scenario that no one could have predicted, and that impacted the international transit of goods, which is our main market. With tariffs, particularly on steel and aluminum, we were forced to be creative and agile in our response to reposition the team and seek organic growth with clients in other areas,” Ángel Hernández Gaytán, CEO of STI (number 13 in the </span><a href="https://t21.com.mx/revista-t21-diciembre-2025/"><span dir="auto">Top 100 of Autotransport®</span></a><span dir="auto"> ), told T21.</span></p></blockquote>
<figure id="attachment_670098" class="wp-caption aligncenter" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-670098"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="wp-image-670098 size-full" src="https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Angel-Hernandez.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px" srcset="https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Angel-Hernandez.jpg 1170w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Angel-Hernandez-300x179.jpg 300w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Angel-Hernandez-1024x613.jpg 1024w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Angel-Hernandez-768x459.jpg 768w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Angel-Hernandez-600x359.jpg 600w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Angel-Hernandez-150x90.jpg 150w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Angel-Hernandez-750x449.jpg 750w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Angel-Hernandez-1140x682.jpg 1140w" alt="" width="1170" height="700" data-pin-no-hover="true" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-670098" class="wp-caption-text"><span dir="auto">Ángel Hernández, CEO of STI.</span></figcaption></figure>
<p><em><span dir="auto">The executive noted that although STI has faced other critical moments throughout its history, such as the 2008-2009 subprime</span></em><span dir="auto"> mortgage crisis in the United States, which had a global impact, or the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the company&#8217;s fundamentals were key to overcoming this period.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“We have a solid client portfolio that allows us to serve them effectively, but we have also built long-term relationships; with some of our clients we have been </span><strong><span dir="auto">working for over 20 years</span></strong><span dir="auto"> . This also extends to </span><strong><span dir="auto">our employees</span></strong><span dir="auto"> ; some have been with us almost since the company began and continue to be involved,” added Ángel Hernández, who joined STI in 2001.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">In the context of the trade war, according to figures from </span><a href="https://www.commerce.gov/"><span dir="auto">the United States Department of Commerce</span></a><span dir="auto"> , </span><strong><span dir="auto">Mexico contributed 15.3% of the total trade of that country</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , consolidating itself as the main trading partner above Canada and well above China.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">The border crossing remains the main point of entry between the two countries, totaling $353.94 billion in 2025, driven by a 7.7% increase in Mexican exports to the United States, which reached $227.11 billion. Conversely, exports from Mexico to the United States contracted by 1.11%, settling at $126.83 billion.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">The positive trend has continued for the first two months, according to comments by Ángel Hernández, and according to STI&#8217;s operations in both periods, there is growth compared to the same cycle in 2025.</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">Given this market, which is expected to recover, some of STI&#8217;s strengths, as identified by its CEO, include </span><strong><span dir="auto">financial discipline</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , which is currently a key asset. Since most of its revenue is in dollars, and the </span><strong><span dir="auto">&#8220;super peso&#8221; (a reference to the strong peso)</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , this has an impact on its financial structure that must be managed with clients.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">“It forces us to be close to our clients and make them aware of this reality of currency losses. We have been negotiating especially with those who operate </span><em><span dir="auto">spot</span></em><span dir="auto"> routes ; with those whose routes we have contracted, it is more complex, but we are looking for ways to compensate. Ideally, we want to operate within the range of 20 pesos per dollar,” Hernández Gaytán explained.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-670102 size-full" src="https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/260312_dolar-peso.jpg" sizes="(max-width: 1444px) 100vw, 1444px" srcset="https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/260312_dolar-peso.jpg 1444w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/260312_dolar-peso-300x184.jpg 300w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/260312_dolar-peso-1024x628.jpg 1024w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/260312_dolar-peso-768x471.jpg 768w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/260312_dolar-peso-600x368.jpg 600w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/260312_dolar-peso-150x92.jpg 150w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/260312_dolar-peso-750x460.jpg 750w, https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/260312_dolar-peso-1140x699.jpg 1140w" alt="" width="1444" height="885" data-pin-no-hover="true" /></p>
<p><span dir="auto">Based on data from the </span><a href="https://www.banxico.org.mx/"><span dir="auto">Bank of Mexico (Banxico)</span></a><span dir="auto"> , </span><strong><span dir="auto">the highest exchange rate in 2025 was 20.85 pesos per dollar</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , reached on March 6 of that year, and if compared against the level reached on March 9, 2026, the exchange rate difference is </span><strong><span dir="auto">-15.2 percent</span></strong><span dir="auto"> .</span></p>
<p><span dir="auto">This situation may have an impact on the search to modernize the fleet and keep it current, an effect that for STI was not so profound, since in 2024 they had made the pre-purchase of units considered to incorporate into the fleet in 2025.</span></p>
<p><strong><span dir="auto">In 2025, the company&#8217;s focus was on the trailer team</span></strong><span dir="auto"> , &#8220;which served the growth of our divisions, both specialized and dry van for international and local market movements, as well as to support the logistics divisions,&#8221; described Ángel Hernández.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">In addition, a key aspect of STI&#8217;s strategy is the institutionalization of the company, where, although some management positions are held by family members, there is a professional rigor to ensure they remain in their positions.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span dir="auto">This factor is fundamental to conveying certainty to customers and various stakeholders about the path the company will follow over time.</span></p>

<blockquote><p><span dir="auto">Based on this reality, the </span><strong><span dir="auto">Drive is Great</span></strong><span dir="auto"> certification , an initiative jointly launched in 2023 </span><a href="https://www.vi-human.com/"><span dir="auto">by VI-Human</span></a><span dir="auto"> and </span><a href="https://t21.com.mx/"><span dir="auto">Grupo T21</span></a><span dir="auto"> , aims to recognize organizations that have managed to develop a successful culture and good institutional practices, centered on the comprehensive development of its operators as a strategic basis for its operations, based on building trust among all collaborators, who enjoy winning through their roles.</span></p></blockquote>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img decoding="async" src="https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/ESL.png" /></p>
<p><span>For more than two years, </span><a href="https://www.esl.com.mx/"><span>Expedited Specialized Logistics (ESL) has been moving step by step toward a goal: obtaining </span></a><strong><span>AEO (Authorized Economic Operator)</span></strong><span> accreditation .</span></p>
<p><span>It was a task that included audits, observations by the </span><a href="https://www.sat.gob.mx/portal/public/home"><span>Tax Administration Service (SAT)</span></a><span> , meetings between areas, compliance processes, and a constant effort to align the entire operation with the </span><strong><span>security and traceability standards</span></strong><span> required by </span><strong><span>international trade</span></strong><span> .</span></p>
<p><span>The result arrived this year and not only represents a </span><strong><span>technical validation</span></strong><span> , but also a </span><strong><span>strategic tool</span></strong><span> for the company&#8217;s growth.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8220;It was a long and complex process. From the moment we started until we obtained accreditation, it took two years,&#8221; </span><strong><span>Ángel Hernández</span></strong><span> , general director of </span><a href="https://www.sti.com.mx/"><span>STI México</span></a><span> and ESL, explained to T21.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>Although it was born as part of </span><strong><span>STI</span></strong><span> , a firm initially specialized in </span><strong><span>maritime and air logistics services</span></strong><span> , </span><strong><span>ESL has grown to establish itself as an operator with its own identity</span></strong><span> , Hernández commented.</span></p>
<p><span>In recent years, the company has added </span><strong><span>ground freight operations</span></strong><span> , including </span><strong><span>fifth-wheel units</span></strong><span> , and has its own customer base.</span></p>
<p><span>In that context, having </span><strong><span>OAS accreditation</span></strong><span> was more than a goal: it was an </span><strong><span>operational necessity</span></strong><span> .</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8220;Many of our clients move merchandise to ports or abroad. For them, </span><strong><span>security in the logistics chain</span></strong><span> is a priority,&#8221; Hernández noted.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>The </span><strong><span>AEO accreditation</span></strong><span> guarantees that the company complies with the </span><strong><span>legal and fiscal requirements</span></strong><span> imposed by the Mexican Customs Authority (SAT); it also facilitates benefits such as the use of </span><strong><span>FAST lanes</span></strong><span> (fast lanes in customs for reliable companies), recognition by other </span><strong><span>international customs authorities</span></strong><span> , and better opportunities with </span><strong><span>large corporations</span></strong><span> , he explained.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>But the journey doesn&#8217;t end there. &#8220;This accreditation is an important step toward obtaining <strong><a href="https://www.cbp.gov/border-security/ports-entry/cargo-security/CTPAT">CTPAT (Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism)</a></strong></span><strong><span> certification</span></strong><span> ,&#8221; Ángel Hernández said.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>With that goal in mind, </span><strong><span>ESL is seeking to further strengthen its position as a reliable operator with U.S. authorities</span></strong><span> , aiming to consolidate itself as a </span><strong><span>fast-paced company with international standards</span></strong><span> , the executive emphasized.</span></p>
<p><span>Looking ahead to the second half of 2025, </span><strong><span>ESL will focus on accelerating its growth , especially in its </span></strong><strong><span>specialized cargo</span></strong><span> and </span><strong><span>dry van</span></strong><span> divisions , he explained.</span></p>
<p><span>Despite belonging to the STI Group, the company &#8220;maintains a conscious effort to operate with </span><strong><span>its own standards</span></strong><span> and ensure </span><strong><span>regulatory compliance</span></strong><span> , without compromising the </span><strong><span>reputation of the group</span></strong><span> to which it belongs,&#8221; Hernández emphasized.</span></p>
<p><span>The learning process has been cross-cutting. Everyone from the quality department to the traffic department was part of the process.</span></p>
<p><span>The accreditation was made possible &#8220;thanks to the </span><strong><span>coordinated work of a specialized security and compliance team</span></strong><span> , which was responsible for aligning all operational areas (from quality to traffic and dispatch) to ensure that internal processes met the requirements demanded by the authority,&#8221; according to Hernández.</span></p>
<p><span>Today, with </span><strong><span>OAS accreditation</span></strong><span> in hand, </span><strong><span>ESL is better positioned compared to its competitors</span></strong><span> , seeking </span><strong><span>secure, traceable logistics</span></strong><span> that are prepared for the </span><strong><span>new challenges of international trade</span></strong><span> , he emphasized.</span></p>

<p><span>The history of this company is not measured in trucks, but in </span><strong><span>strategic decisions</span></strong><span> , resilience, and a true passion for service.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8220;We don&#8217;t want to be the biggest, we want to be the best.&#8221; That phrase isn&#8217;t an improvised slogan. It&#8217;s a motto Hernández learned in the halls of the company his family founded. And he doesn&#8217;t just repeat it: he lives it.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>Founded in 1993, </span><strong><span>STI</span></strong><span> was born from the foresight of </span><strong><span>Ernesto Gaytán Palomo</span></strong><span>, who knew how to interpret the new commercial map and decided to establish the company as a public limited company.</span></p>
<p><span>Since then, the company&#8217;s specialty has been crossing borders, both physical and operational, with its own team, door-to-door solutions, and a binational approach between Mexico and the United States.</span></p>
<p><span>Hernández formally joined the team in 2001, after having worked in various areas such as maintenance, administration, customer service, and sales. He earned his academic training while learning in the field, and beyond titles or positions, he developed a </span><strong><span>leadership style that prioritizes respect</span></strong><span> , closeness, and balance. &#8220;We don&#8217;t cross lines here. We walk alongside the team,&#8221; he explained.</span></p>
<p><span>Under his leadership, STI has weathered economic challenges, the impact of the pandemic, and the ups and downs of political decisions in the United States.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8220;These are environments that don&#8217;t depend on you, but rather on how you decide to deal with them,&#8221; he said. From these shocks, lessons have emerged that today allow us to maintain a stable operation with sound finances.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>The company currently maintains a </span><strong><span>fleet of more than 500 units</span></strong><span> , but its </span><strong><span>trailer</span></strong><span> fleet has grown exponentially , especially in the last three years. It was also recognized at the T21 Group&#8217;s </span><em><a href="https://t21.com.mx/transportation-awards-2024-refrenda-la-relevancia-del-autotransporte-de-carga-en-mexico/"><span>2024 Transportation Awards</span></a> </em><span>and earned the </span><em><span>Drive Is Great</span></em><span> certification for its commitment to best practices and continuous improvement.</span></p>
<p><span>STI&#8217;s operations have historically been linked to specialized transport: </span><strong><span>open platforms, oversized trucks, and multi-axle modular vehicles</span></strong><span> , designed for complex loads requiring precision and terrain knowledge. Other segments have been added to this line, such as the </span><strong><span>dry van</span></strong><span> segment , which has been growing steadily.</span></p>
<p><span>This diversification of services was a natural response to customer demand. Demand spoke, and the company listened. Thus, quietly, it consolidated new routes without abandoning its specialty.</span></p>
<p><span>Despite having structure, clients, and growth plans, STI faces a challenge: insecurity and a shortage of operators.</span></p>
<p><span>Far from sitting idly by, the company created its own </span><strong><span>training institute</span></strong><span> , with top-level simulators and alliances with institutions such as the </span><a href="https://cursoscecati.info/planteles-cecati/en-ciudad-de-mexico/"><span>Industrial Work Training Centers (Cecati)</span></a><span> and technological universities.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8220;We want to train professional operators from within. That&#8217;s a very serious commitment,&#8221; Hernández stated.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>Among the goals for 2025 is the </span><strong><span>renewal of 15% of the vehicle fleet</span></strong><span> , and the consolidation of this </span><strong><span>new generation of professional operators</span></strong><span> .</span></p>
<p><span>In addition, land has been acquired in Monterrey to build a </span><strong><span>new terminal</span></strong><span> , continuing the infrastructure investment strategy that has been strengthened in recent years.</span></p>
<p><span>But beyond the numbers, there is a line that defines the heart of the company: always being there.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8220;We don&#8217;t disappear when there are problems. We stay. We respond on weekends and holidays, when others don&#8217;t,&#8221; he said.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>That attitude not only generated trust, but also opened doors with clients who hadn&#8217;t previously been on their radar.</span></p>
<p><span>Today, STI is part of a group that includes </span><strong><span>more than 13 companies</span></strong><span> between Mexico and the United States, and has </span><strong><span>more than 600 employees</span></strong><span> on the Mexican side alone.</span></p>
<p><span>Some measure their success in tons and kilometers traveled, but others, like STI, measure it in trust earned, trained operators, and well-made decisions. They don&#8217;t seek to be the biggest, they seek to be the best, and that, perhaps, is the most difficult path, but also the most solid.</span></p>

<p><a href="https://www.volvotrucks.mx/"><strong>Volvo Trucks</strong></a><strong> introduced its new FH 540 model in Mexico</strong> , marking the restart of commercial operations for its range of cab-over trucks in the domestic market, according to a company press release.</p>
<p>The presentation of the units took place before customers and dealers, accompanied by the announcement of changes to the company&#8217;s management structure. Rafael Kisel, president of <a href="https://www.volvogroup.com/mx/">Volvo Group Mexico</a> , emphasized that this stage <strong>marks the restart of the brand in the country</strong> , with a comprehensive offering of products, after-sales services, spare parts, and financing options.</p>
<blockquote><p>Kisel added that the new units comply with the Euro 6 standard, which helps promote &#8220;the migration to cleaner transportation solutions.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>He noted that the brand&#8217;s new phase in the country involves a <strong>relaunch focused on meeting the demand for cab-over trucks,</strong> and that there are currently <strong>190,000 units of this type of Volvo in Latin America.</strong> He added that Mexico, being one of the top 10 freight transportation markets worldwide, could see 20% growth in this segment.</p>

<p>Along the same lines, the company reported that there are currently more than <strong>12,000 units of the brand&#8217;s vehicles in circulation in Mexico</strong> , which are serviced by its dealer network.</p>
<p>From a regional perspective, Wilson Lirmann, president of Volvo Trucks Latin America, highlighted the strategic importance of the Mexican market for the brand&#8217;s expansion. &#8220;We are actually beginning the sale of flatbed trucks in a strategic market,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Lirmann added that <strong>the firm already has a consolidated presence in other countries in the region</strong> , with a 24% market share in Brazil and Peru, and accelerated growth in Chile, where they have already reached second place. In all cases, he emphasized that the company&#8217;s focus is on &#8220;putting the customer at the center of everything we do.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We know that Latin American transporters are very demanding, and we&#8217;re sure it&#8217;s no different in Mexico. You demand the best solutions in terms of products and services,&#8221; said Lirman.</p></blockquote>
<p>During the event, Volvo delivered the first <strong>FH 540</strong> units to <a href="https://www.simsamexico.com.mx/">Grupo Simsa</a> , <a href="https://www.simsamexico.com.mx/">Super Transportes Internacional (STI)</a> and <a href="https://logisticaoverland.com/">Transportes Overland</a> , who will begin operations with these trucks.</p>
<p>The company reiterated that it will continue investing in both technology and staff training as part of its long-term vision. “ <strong>We have a saying: it&#8217;s by people, for people,</strong> ” Lirmann concluded.</p>

<p><span>With the aim of offering </span><strong><span>closer and more specialized attention to the auto transport sector</span></strong><span> , the agent and insurance specialist, </span><a href="https://marcoafernandez.com/"><span>Marco Fernández</span></a><span> , inaugurated his new office on January 22 in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, one of the main logistics areas of the country.</span></p>
<p><span>Fernández, who has more than 22 years of experience in the insurance sector, told T21 that one of his goals is for transportation companies to see the insurance agent as a </span><strong><span>strategic partner</span></strong><span> , as someone who cares about their </span><strong><span>safety and long-term profitability</span></strong><span> .</span></p>
<p><span>Its approach seeks to go beyond reactive attention, to prioritize </span><strong><span>accident prevention and road culture</span></strong><span> .</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>“We always associate insurance with the reactive part, when an accident has already occurred. But what we want to do is transform the way in which transport companies approach insurance, promoting prevention and reducing losses,” explained Fernández.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>The decision to open an office in </span><strong><span>Nuevo Laredo</span></strong><span> responds to the need to strengthen its relationship with the region&#8217;s transporters and offer a more agile and personalized service. The new headquarters is located in the </span><a href="https://www.censecar.com.mx/"><span>Nuevo Laredo Cargo Services Center (CenSeCar)</span></a><span> , a strategic point for the sector.</span></p>

<p><strong><span>Challenges and trends in the insurance sector</span></strong></p>
<p><span>Fernández pointed out that one of the main challenges in the industry is </span><strong><span>the need for awareness</span></strong><span> not only among drivers, but in all administrative and operational areas of transport companies.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>“It is easy to blame the operator for an accident, but many times there are previous warnings that could have prevented the incident. From monitoring to maintenance, all areas have responsibility,” he stressed.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>Fernández stressed that the insecurity in cargo transport has generated an </span><strong><span>increase in accidents</span></strong><span> , which has reduced the number of insurers willing to operate in the sector.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>“A few years ago you could present eight or 10 insurers, today they must be counted, and some with proposals with very high costs,” explained Fernández.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>Among the </span><strong><span>specialized services that Marco Fernández provides</span></strong><span> in his offices, both in Mexico City and Nuevo Laredo, are:</span></p>
<ol>
<li><strong><span>Fleet and heavy equipment insurance:</span></strong><span> Working exclusively with </span><a href="https://www.qualitas.com.mx/web/qmx/inicio"><span>Quálitas</span></a><span> , it provides coverage from the notification of the incident until the vehicle is back in circulation. It also offers prevention, awareness and road safety services at no additional cost to its clients.</span></li>
<li><strong><span>Crossborder insurance :</span></strong><span> Aimed at the transportation of goods exclusively destined for the states of California, Texas and Arizona in the United States <strong><em>.</em></strong></span></li>
<li><strong><span>Freight transport insurance:</span></strong><span> Coverage both in national territory and at border crossings, integrating cargo protection within the same policy to facilitate management for clients.</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span>In addition, Fernandez stressed that the </span><strong><span>U.S.</span></strong><span> side also has a prevention program, with access to training and continuous improvement tools for transporters.</span></p>
<p><span>This vision of </span><strong><span>safety and prevention</span></strong><span> was supported by various actors in the sector, who attended the inauguration of the office in Nuevo Laredo, including Héctor Hinojosa, general director of </span><a href="https://hhtransportes.com.mx/"><span>Transportes HH</span></a><span> .</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img decoding="async" src="https://t21.com.mx/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Averitt.jpg" /></p>
<p><span>The countdown began on February 3 </span><strong><span>with the one-month postponement of the imposition of US tariffs on Mexican products</span></strong><span> , which allowed exporters a temporary respite.</span></p>
<p><span>For Ángel Hernández, general manager of </span><a href="https://www.sti.com.mx/"><span>Super Transporte Internacional (STI)</span></a><span> , the pressure on the sector has been on since January of this year, the </span><strong><span>demand for more transport and storage space</span></strong><span> to be able to move goods in the face of uncertainty over tariffs.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8220;We already noticed that exporters were beginning to want to send a little more product to the American side to avoid the risk of an increase due to sales. This was seen much more in January, because February was a strong threat,&#8221; explained Hernández.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>With the postponement, the strategy continues to evolve. For Hernandez, </span><strong><span>there is still some uncertainty and the market could demand much more capacity</span></strong><span> in the export area to cover any risk.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8220;These issues are very sensitive, especially because it is a fact that if there is something that Donald Trump does not like, he will want to impose tariffs,&#8221; Hernández said.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>He also said that exporters have sought to secure their operating margins.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>Hernández warned that “there is already a lack of capacity in the warehouses in Laredo, and that is a reality. There is a lack of creativity because it is a reality. The issue of capacity could be affected.”</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>He also indicated that in Laredo many areas are still being developed for storage, but </span><strong><span>not everything is ready</span></strong><span> .</span></p>
<p><span>For his part, Edgar Zamorano, delegate of the  </span><a href="https://canacar.com.mx/"><span>National Chamber of Cargo Transportation (Canacar)</span></a><span> in Reynosa, explained that there are still doubts in the sector.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>“Saturday (February 1) filled us with anguish. We spoke all day with customs agents, exporters, merchandise owners, warehouses, land transport, everyone was on the same page of uncertainty,” Zamorano said.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>He said that a scenario with tariffs would represent a </span><strong><span>“fall in numbers, no one would want to export or import</span></strong><span> ,” he explained.</span></p>
<p><span>She explained how tensions had grown in the days leading up to the meeting. “President Trump’s position was very tough, but President Claudia’s response was also very tough,” she said.</span></p>
<p><span>For Zamorano, </span><strong><span>trade cannot operate with constant pauses</span></strong><span> . “Trump is not someone you can easily convince not to continue with tariffs. Much depends on what Mexico does to avoid it,” he said.</span></p>
<p><span>Along the same lines, Javier Abascal, CEO of </span><a href="https://zonte.com.mx/"><span>Grupo Zonte</span></a><span> , considered that </span><strong><span>Trump&#8217;s move follows a pattern.</span></strong><span> “Knowing Trump, knowing what he is like, I think he will just threaten. His scheme is that: threaten, go out and say things to the press and make everyone nervous,” Abascal commented.</span></p>
<p><span>In the midst of this scenario, </span><strong><span>transporters and logistics operators</span></strong><span> are trying to sustain the flow of trade before uncertainty becomes a definitive blow.</span></p>
<p><span>In this context and in light of the 30-day pause in tariffs, </span><strong><span>logistics specialists warn that the situation remains volatile</span></strong><span> and due to demand </span><strong><span>they have reinforced the offer of their services</span></strong><span> , such was the case of </span><a href="https://www.pegasuslogistics.com/es/"><span>Pegasus Logistics Group</span></a><span> , who in a statement noted that &#8220;despite the postponement, the situation remains unstable and companies must remain vigilant.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span>For its part, </span><a href="https://www.averitt.com/"><span>Averitt</span></a><span> , a cross-border solutions provider, highlighted </span><strong><span>the importance of strengthening supply chains through strategic storage</span></strong><span> by offering inventory relocation.</span></p>
<p><span>In light of this, some companies have already begun to </span><strong><span>explore storage options</span></strong><span> at strategic locations within the United States to ensure the continuity of their operations.</span></p>
<p><span><span class="VIpgJd-yAWNEb-VIpgJd-fmcmS-sn54Q">The question in the sector is clear: will this be just a temporary respite before a new onslaught or the prelude to a definitive agreement? The countdown to find out continues until March of this year.</span></span></p>

<span>In the cumulative period from January to September of this year, trade between Mexico and the United States that was operated through the </span><strong><span>Laredo border port accumulated 254.4 billion dollars (mdd)</span></strong><span> , an increase of 5.74% compared to the same cycle in 2023, according to the </span><a href="https://www.commerce.gov/"><span>United States Department of Commerce</span></a><span> .</span></p>
<p><span>The commercial dynamics </span><strong><span>between Mexico and the United States motivate a logistical dynamic in Laredo</span></strong><span> that is not only manifested in the movement of transport units, but also in storage capacity.</span></p>
<p><span>Aware that infrastructure is key to serving a demanding market, </span><a href="https://www.sti.com.mx/sobre-nosotros"><span>Super Transporte Internacional (STI)</span></a><span> maintains the dynamic of renewing its fleet of tractor trucks to maintain an average age of four years and even reduce it.</span></p>

<p><span>To end the year with this dynamic, STI will receive from now until the rest of the year a total of </span><strong><span>30 Kenworth T680 and T880 tractor trucks</span></strong><span> to renew the fleet of its two market divisions: specialized cargo and dry vans.</span></p>
<p><span>Based on information obtained from STI, </span><a href="https://www.kwrb.com.mx/"><span>Kenworth del Río Bravo</span></a><span> made the symbolic delivery of the first 30 units that will be integrated into the STI fleet, and which are aimed at renewing the vehicle fleet.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>“The units are intended to renew the fleet that we are bringing out, both for the dry box division and for the specialized one,” said Ángel Hernández, general manager of STI. With these deliveries, the color of the tractor-trailers will be defined according to their applications, </span><em><strong><span>“the white ones will be to identify the dry box operation, while the black ones will be for our specialized division.”</span></strong></em></p></blockquote>
<p><span>Given the configuration of STI&#8217;s operations, </span><strong><span>60% of them</span></strong><span> are focused on the </span><strong><span>specialized transport</span></strong><span> division , while the remaining 40% is concentrated on dry box operations, in all cases with a presence in the commercial exchange between Mexico and the United States.</span></p>
<p><span>Recently, STI integrated 10 </span><a href="https://mexico.internationaltrucks.com/tractocamion-lt"><span>International LT</span></a><span> tractor trucks , which are focused on the growth of the specialized division.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>As part of the delivery of the Kenworth tractor-trailer fleet, the occasion was taken to unveil the commemorative plaque in honor of Felipe Gaytán Palomo, founder of STI, who passed away last June. As part of the recognitions made, the plaque is located on the classic 1971 Kenworth tractor-trailer, the date that coincides with Felipe Gaytán&#8217;s birth.</span></p></blockquote>

<p><span>Once again, national roads are blocked to demonstrate for social conflicts, affecting the operation of national auto transport. Faced with this situation, the </span><a href="https://canacar.com.mx/"><span>National Chamber of Cargo Auto Transport (Canacar)</span></a><span> through its president, Miguel Ángel Martínez Millán, sent a letter addressed to the </span><strong><span>Secretary of the Interior, Luisa María Alcalde Luján, requesting her intervention so that the blockade that ejidatarios have maintained active for more than 48 hours</span></strong><span> at km 146 of the northern bypass of Mexico City, Pachuca-Tulancingo section, better known as Arco Norte, is attended to as soon as possible.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>“It is unsustainable for citizens and for freight transport to remain in suspense and in constant uncertainty due to the recurring closure actions carried out by these local groups. We call on Canacar to find a definitive and in the best terms a solution to the problem and to comply with the rule of law for all Mexicans in strict adherence to the law and human rights of all people involved, as well as those affected by unilateral actions that do not contribute to the growth and development of Mexico,” said Martínez Millán.</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>In the document that was received by the Directorate of Control Management of the </span><a href="https://www.gob.mx/segob"><span>Ministry of the Interior (Segob)</span></a><span> and by the Official Parts Office, the representative of the transporters stated that the prompt release of the communication routes is essential to avoid a repeat of what happened a few weeks ago.</span></p>
<p><span>&#8220;Since the </span><strong><span>operators are in inappropriate conditions, being stranded in the middle of the road</span></strong><span> and not having access to food, spaces to meet their basic needs and rest, </span><strong><span>in addition to opening up the possibility of being victims of crimes</span></strong><span> ,&#8221; reads the message.</span></p>
<p><span>It should be noted that this situation was exposed in the Grupo T21 report of August </span><span>2024,</span><span> where it was stated that despite the fact that obstructing communication routes is considered a federal crime in Mexico, punishable by penalties ranging from one to five years in prison and 100 to 10 thousand days of fines, according to Article 167 of the Federal Penal Code, the taking of roads and toll booths as a form of pressure against the authorities is increasingly frequent, affecting not only those involved, but also the thousands of road users who are stranded to their fate for hours, even days.</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>At the time, Ángel Hernández Gaytán, general director of </span><a href="https://www.sti.com.mx/"><span>STI</span></a><span> , explained that these actions cause disruptions and chaos in terms of mobility. “Specifically for the trucking companies, the repercussions range from delays in delivery times, route deviations or reconfiguration in the operational planning of a route, which causes an increase in operating costs, greater mileage in the units and, therefore, loss of productivity. As well as impacts on the supply chain due to </span><em><span>just</span></em><span> -in-time movements, but above all it causes wear and tear and stress in the operators.”</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>In the letter addressed to Mayor Luján, the president of Canacar urged an end to the conflict that undermines companies, “violates the right to free movement of people and harms our country.”</span></p>
<p><span>Although blockades are unfortunately already the daily bread of national highways, Carlos Salas Buz, who is part of the Committee of the </span><a href="https://www.agedi.com.mx/"><span>Association of Cranes, Equipment and Industrial Devices (AGEDI)</span></a><span> , detailed in the aforementioned report that, </span><strong><span>given the seriousness of the effects, it is necessary to take into account that there are other mechanisms to achieve changes, through dialogue with the authorities and the rapprochement of the parties involved</span></strong><span> .</span></p>
