JOC' Mexico Trade and Shipping Outlook

Thursday, May 20, 2021

2:00-3:00 pm EST

The Journal of Commerce is known for producing top tier trade events. The agenda features top speakers from around the world and this webcast will provide an in-depth analysis of ocean and cross-border freight trends, highlight major port and intermodal investments, and address how cargo owners, with the help of transportation service providers, are injecting new flexibility into their supply chains. 

Mexico’s economy may be stuck in the doldrums, but its freight markets are heating up. Although container volumes though Mexican plunged 11 percent in the first half of 2020, volumes are rebounding and new all-water services to the US are providing cargo owners new options to avoid often lengthy delays at surface ports of entry. 

At the border, cross-border freight volumes are rebounding, forcing shippers that typically demand direct truckload service from Mexico to the US to change their strategies.

Emmanuel Sanchez, Managing Director of Albatrans Mexico, the WSSA partner in Mexico, will speak on a panel addressing Mexico Trade and Shipping Outlook on Thursday, May 20, 2021, from 2-3pm EST.
