“The way that cross-border shipments work in Mexico is a lot different than the US. In Mexico, they are shipping larger contracts that are specific around commodities so that shippers wouldn’t be able to find new capacity as quickly as in the US you can,” Mark Vickers explained.

Furthermore, Mark raised concerns regarding cargo hijackings in Mexico, revealing a startling statistic.

“The recorded numbers of cargo hijackings in Mexico are more than double than in the US, but the alarming piece is most of the instances and hijackings go underreported or go completely unreported,” Mark Vickers disclosed.
