Carlos Sesma, a Senior Partner at the Sesma, Sesma and McNeese Law Firm, connects with Trucking Matters from Mexico City for this Borderless Coverage edition of the podcast. Carlos, who earned the reputation as the top corporate attorney in Mexico for the transportation and logistics sector, is also a partner and co-founder of the Mexico carrier vetting and rating platform, Confianza. As you will hear, Borderless Coverage founder and podcast host Mark Vickers, who is an Executive Vice President and the Head of International Logistics at Reliance Partners, covers a broad range of timely topics with Carlos during the show.
Along with discussing the continued steady growth of cross-border logistics that have followed the shift in supply chains away from China and toward Mexico, Mark and Carlos highlight the key considerations when looking at the differences between the legal structures for transportation and logistics in Mexico versus the United States, such as the limited liability for registered Mexican carriers. They also note the importance of having proper contracts and insurance to mitigate risks.
Carlos spends some time offering insights into why the Confianza platform was created with the aim of providing vetting and visibility for Mexican carriers to help build trust between them and U.S. shippers/brokers looking to work across the border. Looking at the road ahead, Carlos remains optimistic about the potential for continued growth in cross-border logistics, particularly with the upcoming renegotiation of the USMCA trade agreement.
