- 1:31100%
- 1:31ground,
- 1:32so
- 1:33we

- 1:35transits
- 1:36involved
- 1:37from

- 1:37US
- 1:37To
- 1:37Mexico.
- 1:39And
- 1:39while
- 1:40this
- 1:40may
- 1:40seem
- 1:41like
- 1:42a
- 1:42slower
- 1:43option
- 1:43on
- 1:43the
- 1:44surface,
- 1:44using
- 1:45Laredo
- 1:45as
- 1:45the
- 1:46gateway
- 1:47and
- 1:47trucking
- 1:48the
- 1:48parcels
- 1:48over
- 1:48the
- 1:49border
- 1:49rather
- 1:49than

- 1:52them
- 1:52in
- 1:53crowded
- 1:53airports
- 1:54within
- 1:54Mexico.
- 1:55So
- 1:55we
- 1:56put
- 1:56them
- 1:56on
- 1:56a
- 1:56truck,
- 1:56they
- 1:57get
- 1:57on
- 1:57a
- 1:57line,
- 1:58they
- 1:58cross
- 1:58the
- 1:59bridge
- 1:59from
- 1:59the
- 1:59US
- 1:59Into
- 2:00Mexico,
- 2:01and
- 2:01then
- 2:01from
- 2:01there,
- 2:02once
- 2:02their
- 2:02customs
- 2:02cleared,
- 2:03they're
- 2:04free
- 2:04to
- 2:04go.
- 2:04Whereas
- 2:05a
- 2:05lot
- 2:05of
- 2:05times
- 2:06when
- 2:06you
- 2:06see
- 2:07people
- 2:07putting
- 2:07parcels
- 2:08on
- 2:08planes
- 2:08into
- 2:08Mexico,
- 2:09it
- 2:10gets
- 2:10stuck
- 2:10in
- 2:10an
- 2:10airport.
- 2:11There's
- 2:12millions
- 2:13of
- 2:13parcels
- 2:14in
- 2:14this
- 2:14airport,

- 2:14things
- 2:15can
- 2:15get
- 2:15lost
- 2:15in
- 2:15the
- 2:15shuffle.
- 2:16So
- 2:16I
- 2:16think
- 2:16that's
- 2:17one
- 2:18of
- 2:18the
- 2:18things
- 2:18where
- 2:19when
- 2:20people
- 2:20hear
- 2:20ground
- 2:21versus
- 2:21air,
- 2:21they
- 2:22automatically
- 2:22think
- 2:22that
- 2:22it's
- 2:23just
- 2:24a
- 2:24slower
- 2:24service.
- 2:25But
- 2:25I
- 2:25think
- 2:26the
- 2:26way
- 2:27we
- 2:27have
- 2:27it
- 2:27set
- 2:27up
- 2:27for
- 2:28Mexico
- 2:28makes
- 2:29it
- 2:30actually
- 2:30puts
- 2:31us
- 2:31at
- 2:31an
- 2:31advantage.
- 2:33Also,
- 2:33by
- 2:34using
- 2:34only
- 2:34ground
- 2:35solutions,
- 2:36we
- 2:36have
- 2:36the
- 2:36ability
- 2:37to
- 2:37handle
- 2:37commodities
- 2:38that
- 2:38otherwise
- 2:39would
- 2:39be
- 2:39considered
- 2:40dangerous
- 2:40goods.
- 2:40So
- 2:41a
- 2:41good
- 2:41example
- 2:41of
- 2:42that
- 2:42would
- 2:42be
- 2:42perfumes
- 2:43we
- 2:44have
- 2:44the
