As the global e-commerce industry expands, smooth international shipping processes are fundamental. With more than half of Mexico’s population having access to Internet and 2 out of 3 of these users making online purchases, the demand for the fast, reliable delivery of goods from the US to Mexico continues to rise. With lengthy processing times and frequent delays for clearance, current Customs practices simply cannot accommodate the rates at which our global industries are expanding.
At SkyBridge, US CBP and Mexican Customs officers will work side by side to jointly inspect and process shipments in preparation for international transit. All required documents, inspections, tracking and other services occur on-site at Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport. Shipments through SkyBridge will bypass the cumbersome International Customs Center in Mexico City to continue on to their final destinations, allowing Customs to follow packages and cargo electronically to any city in Mexico and eventually through Central and Latin America.
Through SkyBridge Arizona, businesses across diverse sectors will reap the benefits. Ecommerce companies, aerospace firms, agricultural growers, manufacturers, and virtually any company doing business with Mexico and Latin America will be able to carry out faster, more secure deliveries and further mitigate and eliminate the risk of lost shipments. Likewise, consumers in Mexico and Latin America will be able to make purchases online and receive their products the next day.
