UPS seeks to beat red tape on both sides of Mexican border
ATLANTA's United Parcel Service says it has strengthened its cross-border services to help US exporters capture new opportunities in Mexico.
UPS expects to help solve the complex problems of how to move freight and packages more efficiently and reliably on this important trade lane.
It also seeks to help Mexican exporters to increase trade with the US, says a press release from the global logistics company.
UPS expects to help solve the complex problem of how to move freight and packages more efficiently and reliably on this important trade lane.
The US is Mexico's largest trading partner. Mexico is the United States second-largest export market (after Canada) and its third-largest trading partner.
Every day, some US$1.4 billion is exchanged in commercial trade between the US and Mexico.
Growth in manufacturing and the middle class in Mexico, increases in e-commerce shipments and the rise in intermodal cross-border shipments between the US and Mexico drove UPS's renewed focus on the trade lane.
In 2014, UPS established a "centre of excellence" for US-Mexico trade. A team of experts evaluated and improved offerings, focusing on shippers' needs.
"We reengineered and aligned our capabilities for more flexibility, reliability, visibility and simplicity," said centre manager Carlos Cubias.
"Shippers now have the same service optionsXpress, expedited or standard:Xfor all shipments regardless of size. In addition, UPS is the only carrier with delivery guarantees for LTL and package shipments when we are the customs broker," he said.
UPS claims to have the broadest range of services between the US and Mexico, giving shippers flexibility of choice from one carrier.
"With UPS's acquisition of Coyote Logistics in 2015, shippers gained Coyote's leading technologies for truckload services, giving customers the ultimate in visibility and confidence," said Mr Cubias.
"UPS has seen nearly a 20 per cent increase in customer requests for US-Mexico cross-border movements," he said.
"Our long history in cross-border movements plus the improvements we have made to our ground freight servicesXsuch as the addition of guarantees and truckload via Coyote LogisticsXgives us confidence we can support shippers better than ever before," Mr Cubias said.
