Corporativo UNNE

What Corporativo UNNE does

Corporativo UNNE is a privately held, 100% Mexican industrial conglomerate founded in 1972 in Tula de Allende, Hidalgo by Don Noé Paredes Salazar and Doña Rosalía Meza de Rudiño, and led today by Lic. Noé Paredes Meza as Director General. The group operates across five integrated business units: a transportation division (TRACSA, TRAFESA, TECS, TRANS PAC) covering hydrocarbons, petrochemicals, flat glass, containers, and raw materials; UNNE Logistics, an integrated supply-chain operator offering multimodal/intermodal transport, customs, warehousing, and international forwarding; DICOMEX, which commercializes diesel and combustóleo through 5 plants (4.6M+ liters storage) and a fleet of more than 400 tank trucks; PAME, a Bridgestone Bandag-franchised tire retreader delivering an 18% annual tire-cost saving; and EXPROMAT, which runs 10 mines producing iron, gypsum, kaolin, pozzolan, and silica sand for industrial clients.

The technology stack spans telematics and satellite tracking on all vehicles for route optimization and operator behavior monitoring, MobilEye vision-based safety technology for collision avoidance, and the Guardian vision system for fatigue and distraction detection. PAME applies Bridgestone Bandag retreading technology under franchise, and DICOMEX uses its own Estación de Trasvases UNNE-TILH to transship rail-imported fuels to trucks. The TILH itself is a $200 million USD multimodal terminal inaugurated in 2012 with Hutchinson Port Holding. The conglomerate holds ISO 39001:2012 (only specialized Mexican cargo carrier with this certification), ISO 9001:2015, ESR (5 consecutive years), and CANACAR executive-council membership.

The business model is enterprise field sales with quote-based pricing across all service lines. Revenue is generated through transaction fees (fuel sales, mineral sales, tire retreading) and professional services (transportation, logistics, customs). Long-duration B2B contracts anchor demand — PEMEX concessions since 1977, Saint Gobain since 1994, Cruz Azul (cement), and automotive-industry clients. Operations span Mexico (Nuevo Laredo to Minatitlán), the United States, and Canada. The group is privately held by the Paredes Meza family with no external institutional capital disclosed.
