Origin
Uruapan, located in the heart of Michoacán, is strategically positioned as a logistics hub for Mexico's agricultural export industry. Known as the avocado capital of the world, Uruapan serves as the primary collection and distribution center for Mexico's vast avocado production, which represents a significant portion of U.S. imports. The city benefits from its proximity to major agricultural regions and its connection to Mexico's Pacific corridor via Federal Highway 15. Uruapan's transportation infrastructure includes the Cupareo Industrial Park, which houses numerous cold storage facilities and processing centers. The city's location provides excellent connectivity to both Pacific and Gulf ports, making it an ideal origin point for cross-border freight moving to the United States. The region's robust agricultural sector, combined with growing manufacturing capabilities, creates consistent demand for full truckload services to major U.S. markets.

San Diego
San Diego, California serves as a critical logistics gateway on the U.S. West Coast, offering strategic advantages for cross-border freight operations. As the southernmost major port city in California, San Diego provides direct access to Interstate 5, the primary north-south artery connecting Mexico to Canada. The city's proximity to the Mexican border (approximately 32 km from Tijuana) makes it an ideal destination for cross-border freight, particularly for time-sensitive shipments. San Diego's logistics infrastructure includes the Otay Mesa Port of Entry, one of the busiest commercial border crossings in the region, and numerous distribution centers strategically located near major highways. The city's thriving economy, driven by biotechnology, defense, tourism, and international trade, creates consistent demand for freight transportation services. San Diego's Mediterranean climate also makes it an important destination for temperature-sensitive agricultural products from Mexico.
