This new office connects another key industrial city to our expanding international network. AIT-Monterrey will also serve as the primary hub in Mexico to connect with our U.S. trucking network. This enhancement creates new solutions for our customers – not just for U.S. distribution, but also for import and export services with Asia and Europe.”
