Route Description
Everything you need to know about the corridor Milwaukee - Manzanillo
The Milwaukee-Manzanillo corridor represents a vital logistics connection between the industrial heartland of the United States and one of Mexico's most important Pacific ports. This 3,079 km route facilitates the movement of goods between Wisconsin's manufacturing sector and the expanding industrial base in Colima and surrounding regions. The corridor leverages major transportation infrastructure including I-94, I-35, and Mexican Federal Highways 40D and 54D, creating an efficient pathway for cross-border freight operations.
This route serves critical industries on both sides of the border. From Milwaukee, we handle automotive parts, machinery, agricultural equipment, and food products destined for Mexican markets. The corridor supports the automotive supply chain, with components flowing to assembly plants in central Mexico, as well as agricultural exports that benefit from Manzanillo's refrigerated cargo capabilities. The port of Manzanillo itself handles over 50% of Mexico's containerized cargo, making it a strategic gateway for both imports and exports.
Control Terrestre provides comprehensive FTL services along this corridor, managing all cross-border logistics including customs clearance at Laredo or El Paso. Our C-TPAT-certified carriers ensure secure and efficient transit, while our experience with both US and Mexican transportation regulations guarantees smooth operations.
