What Trayecto does
Trayecto is a privately held Mexican ground transportation conglomerate headquartered in General Escobedo, Nuevo León, and self-described as the largest cargo trucking company in Mexico. The company operates across Mexico and the United States through a portfolio of specialized wholly-owned subsidiaries covering regular cargo, automotive logistics, hazardous materials, temperature-controlled freight, intermodal, fuel transport, food-grade shipping, and consolidated cargo. Its core platform consists of 5,300 tractor trucks averaging 3.6 years in age, 11,000 trailers, 90 box trucks, and 60+ terminals positioned at strategic border crossings and commercial ports.
The company's offering is organized around specialized sub-brands (ALA Transportes, Larmex Transportes, TM Transportes, TLH Transportes, TMI Transportes, AT Transportes, Larmex Autos, FEM Transportes, Alantra) supported by in-house maintenance (TRM Talleres), a driver training academy (UDAT), and a truck retail arm (Punto Naranja). It holds a deep compliance stack — CTPAT, OEA, FAST, ISO, ISO 22000, TAPA FSR Level A, ESG, EMA, RI, and ANAB — that underpins eligibility for cross-border, hazardous, and food-grade freight. The fleet includes 270+ natural gas and 260+ EPA 10 compliant engines as part of an emissions-modernization initiative.
Trayecto generates revenue through B2B freight transportation services priced on a quote-based transaction model under multi-year contracts, with direct enterprise sales via the website ("Cotiza aquí") and corporate sales team. The 2023 merger of GTM (Grupo Transportista Monterrey) and LARMEX consolidated the platform into the unified Trayecto brand. No public financial figures are disclosed.
