Mexico 101 Webinars – Winning Mexico freight in 2026!
Join us on Thursday, June 4th at 10:00AM CST for this FREE webinar hosted by Matt Silver, Co-founder and CEO of Cargado.
Why attend?
Attend this FREE webinar hosted by Matt Silver, Co-founder and CEO of Cargado. Matt has spent over 17 years in cross-border logistics — building Mexico operations at Coyote, founding Forager (later acquired by Arrive and converted into Arrive’s Mexico division), and now leading Cargado.
Matt breaks down exactly how modern brokers — from small teams to enterprise 3PLs — are expanding into the fastest-growing freight corridor in North America without needing to hire a dedicated Mexico team.
For the first time, Mexico 101 is open to any broker ready to make cross-border a real part of their 2026 strategy.
We will cover:
- Why nearshoring is accelerating faster than brokers realize
- How to find Mexico freight already hiding in your book
- The myths that stop teams from getting started
- How to quote and cover Mexico freight with confidence
- What “normal” border dwell actually looks like
- How brokers use Cargado to scale Mexico in days, not months
Mexico freight is now a core piece of North American supply chains. Whether you’re quoting your first Mexico lane or scaling an existing program, this session shows you how to:
- Quote confidently
- Avoid the most common mistakes
- Uncover new revenue inside accounts you already have
- Win higher-margin, stickier freight
- Expand without expanding headcount
“It's great having somebody in our corner that we can ask questions to that are very knowledgeable, and know what they're doing, so that we do things the right way and by the book.”
