What TIP México does
TIP México (legal name: TIP de México, S.A.P.I. de C.V.) is a Mexico-based vehicle and fleet leasing company founded in 1993 and headquartered in Cuautitlán Izcalli, Estado de México. The company operates two core divisions: TIP Trailer, which leases heavy transport equipment (dry boxes, refrigerated boxes, platforms, semi-trucks, and buses) primarily to freight carriers and transport permit holders, and TIP Auto, which leases light and medium vehicles (sedans, SUVs, pickups, vans) to corporate fleets (Personas Morales) and through a separate subsidiary (Bitcar México) to individuals and small businesses. TIP México is a subsidiary of Grupo Engen and serves a customer base spanning large enterprises, mid-market transport operators, and SMEs, with direct field-sales coverage across 19 Mexican states and an in-house contact center.
The platform combines multiple lease structures (Pure Leasing, Financial Leasing, Sale & Lease Back, Renting, and Short-term Rental from 1 to 17 months) with a bundle of complementary services including vehicle insurance, maintenance administration, satellite tracking and telematics, legal assistance, fleet administration, and factoring for SME working-capital support. Technology is delivered through the MyTIP mobile and web application, AI-driven lease approval workflows, and telematics integration. The company also offers EcoLeasing, a dedicated line for hybrid and electric vehicles, and participates in the OneNet Global Alliance for cross-border leasing. Revenue is generated primarily through recurring monthly lease payments over 24-72 month terms, supplemented by transaction fees on factoring and one-time proceeds from the resale of end-of-lease vehicles via its in-house auction platform (subastas.tipmexico.com).
Capital is accessed through repeated issuances of certificados bursátiles on the Mexican stock exchange, with the November 2025 fifth bond raising 4,000 million pesos (~US$214 million) on oversubscribed terms supported by major banks. The company holds ISO 9001, 14001, 27001, 45001, and 50001 certifications, has received the CEMEFI Distintivo ESR for five consecutive years, and is a UN Global Compact signatory. Customer concentration is diversified across transportation, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, and commerce verticals with no single disclosed anchor account.
