Ryder System, a fully integrated port-to-door logistics and transportation company, recently opened a multiclient logistics facility in El Paso, Texas, near the Ysleta Port of Entry.
The 50,000-square-foot facility provides cross-dock services, ambient storage for imports and exports, 24/7 yard operations, and value-added services. It has 20 dock doors and room for 350 trailers.
“The new El Paso site is just across the border from Juárez, Mexico, which is the most important industrial market along the border, with more than 300 export-oriented manufacturing plants that produce everything from car components to snack foods,” Ricardo Alvarez, Ryder Mexico vice president of supply chain operations, said. “It’s one reason Mexico is so attractive to companies looking to diversify their supply chains – that, and the proximity to the U.S. Put what you need on a truck, and you can have it at your U.S. distribution center within days, not weeks or months.”
Ryder opened a 228,000-square-foot multiclient warehouse and cross dock in Laredo in February and expanded its drayage yard in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico
