The management of national and international transport has represented one of the largest items in the logistics industry; however, this category of transport is broad and can be divided into national and international operations. On this occasion we will discuss the benefits offered by ground transportation.
Ground transportation generally involves supply chain services such as cargo shipping, which is the most representative item in the logistics chain. Brokerage and document preparation are also involved. Although transport management providers often do not own assets, some use subcontracted equipment such as trucks or vans, which in our case, the providers are duly audited, since Grupo Linc has a BASC certification that gives us the support that the processes are 100% safe.
The Pacific Corridor, also called the Mesoamerican Integration Corridor, is part of the International Mesoamerican Highway Network (RICAM) and has a total length of 3,244 kilometers, crossing all of Central America. It begins its journey in the city of Puebla, in the central zone of Mexico, and later from the city of Arriaga it continues its route along the coast of the Pacific Ocean until it reaches Panama City.
Within the framework of the International Mesoamerican Highway Network (RICAM), as a structuring program of the integration initiative of the Mesoamerica Project, the complementation of the Pacific Corridor has been promoted in terms of construction, as well as the rehabilitation and maintenance of some 13,132 kilometers of articulated highways. in five key corridors.
However, it has been assessed that mobility in the region requires investment in order to have better traffic, for example, the average travel speeds along the Pacific Corridor continue to be around 17 – 20 km/h considering the average speed of circulation, the stop and rest times of the drivers and the delays at the border.
Today land transportation has brought many benefits in terms of transportation from Central America to Panama or vice versa and transportation from Mexico to Central America and Panama or vice versa, as mentioned above. As a company that works with this service, at Grupo Linc the safety of the equipment and of course the cargo is promoted first and foremost. Having said this, we have been able to promote some strategies such as:
- Cargo insurance: 100% deductible, 0 risks;
- Movements during daytime hours;
- Integrated system of quality drivers (audited by the company, since it responds to the BASC certification)
- Accessible hours, according to customer needs;
- Guards and escorts from door to door, or in the border routes that you want to place.
- Competitive transit times;
- Competitive rates;
- Wide coverage network;
- Traceability and direct trips;
- Documentation and nationalization of cargo.
