Recognized as one of the Top 500 Largest Hispanic-Owned and Veteran-Owned Businesses in the United States, Llanes’ company has earned national attention for its rapid growth, operational excellence, and unwavering values. Spartan Carrier Group operates over 650+ assets across 12 locations in the U.S., Mexico, and Canada, providing asset-based transportation, 3PL solutions, cross-border logistics, warehousing, and freight management.
Llanes’ leadership is shaped by four combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan with the 101st Airborne Division, and by a steadfast belief that his success is a direct result of his Christian faith. Guided by biblical principles of service, integrity, and stewardship, Carlos leads a mission-driven organization that prioritizes people over profit and purpose over prestige.
Spartan Carrier Group has earned the trust of major clients such as Toyota Motor North America, Foot Locker, Highland Dairy, and leading Tier-1 automotive suppliers. The company boasts a 98% on-time delivery rate and is at the forefront of nearshoring efforts, supporting over 24 million square feet of warehousing and cross-docking space through key alliances across the U.S.–Mexico border.
More than a logistics company, Spartan is a movement—one powered by faith, forged in discipline, and focused on revolutionizing the supply chain industry. As Llanes continues to scale his operations and influence, he stands as a rising star in logistics, a bold entrepreneur, and a living testament to the power of purpose-driven leadership.
