B & M International Transport

What B & M International Transport does

B&M International Transport S.A.C. is a privately held Peruvian freight forwarding and cargo agency headquartered in Lima. Founded in 2018 by Brigitte Mendoza, the firm provides multi-modal international logistics services — maritime, air, and ground freight forwarding — bundled with customs brokerage, insurance brokerage, and warehousing. It operates across Peru's principal maritime gateways, including Callao, Paita, and Chancay, the latter being the country's new deep-water mega-port that entered commercial operation in late 2024.

The company serves primarily industrial and commercial importers and exporters, with named customers spanning chemicals (ARCHROMA), metals and industrial supplies (MAQUIMSA), apparel (OYM BRANDS), plastics (INYECTOPLAST), and metals recycling (AGECOMET). Since inception, B&M reports having served more than 500 clients and completed over 1,000 shipments, while operating with a small team of approximately eight staff — indicating a high shipment-per-employee ratio relative to typical Peruvian micro-forwarders.

B&M's business model is transaction-based: revenue is generated per shipment through forwarding fees, customs clearance charges, insurance brokerage commissions, and warehousing/storage fees. The bundled service offering positions the firm as a one-stop shop for Peruvian shippers seeking integrated cross-border logistics rather than a pure transport intermediary. There is no disclosed evidence of proprietary technology platforms, digital booking systems, or AI-driven tools; operations appear to rely on conventional freight-forwarding workflows combined with localized regulatory and carrier relationships.
