“We have developed a streamlined shipping and communication process which has delivered an improved and expedited experience for our clients," said Mona Lopez, Morrison Express El Paso operations manager. “As an example, loads reach our facility and cross the border with on-site, bilingual staff who handle the inbound process at origin while communicating in Chinese and see shipments through to pre-inspection by customs in Mexico in Spanish.”

Morrison serves a manufacturing base in Juarez and other cities, moving products like lightweight automotive materials and skins, tablet and technology components, synthetic rubber, and specialized polymers.

The company said manufacturers that have employed American and Mexican back-shoring programs allow suppliers in North America and Asia to cross the border for light assembly or manufacturing using Morrison’s Free Trade Zone operations, transportation, logistics and customs experience.

Morrison Express also offers Return Merchandise Authorization to manufacturers that are diagnosing issues, performing testing and quality control —while using certified OEM processes—and returning materials from U.S. retailers across the border and back to plants in Mexico.

"For large electronics manufacturers, Morrison Express offers clients an expedited 2-3 day express service from Korea, Taiwan, China, and Hong Kong via LAX trans-load and cross dock to feed full containers into our El Paso facility," said Eduardo Vargas, Morrison Express director of logistics and customer solutions. “An FTZ operation grants clients numerous benefits including duty deferment until export, unlimited storage time, electronic admission, and the ability to manipulate cargo stateside.”
