Jaguar Transportation: A New Era of Growth in North American Logistics

The transportation and logistics industry in North America is set to witness a significant transformation with the recent acquisition of Jaguar Transportation Inc. by Luminus Management in partnership with Lilium Group and Gateway Transport. This consortium of prominent Mexican industrial interests aims to expand Jaguar's service offerings and capitalize on the growing cross-border trade between the United States and Mexico.

Jaguar Transportation Inc., the Delaware-based holding company of Servicios de Transportacion Jaguar SA de CV, is a leading provider of cross-border and domestic freight services in Mexico. With a specific focus on supporting import and export trade between Mexico and the United States, Jaguar has become a trusted partner for multinational businesses operating in the vicinity of the US border.

What sets Jaguar apart is its ability to operate as a Mexican national carrier despite being majority US-owned, thanks to its exclusive Neutral Foreign Investment Permit. This unique advantage allows Jaguar to offer seamless logistical solutions throughout North America, making it a preferred choice for both US and Mexican carriers.

The acquisition of Jaguar by Luminus Management, in partnership with Lilium Group and Gateway Transport Investments, marks the beginning of a new era of growth for the company. The consortium plans to make substantial investments to expand Jaguar's service offerings and strengthen its position in the market.

Peterson Hawkins, Partner at Lilium Group and Executive Chairman of Jaguar, expressed his excitement about the partnership, stating, "Jaguar is a unique asset in North American transportation, and we are excited to continue to develop and grow the company's footprint and services." He also highlighted the strength of the Mexican domestic economy and the potential for rapid growth in operations of multinational businesses near the US border.

The partnership with Lilium and Gateway provides Jaguar with access to a large network of industrial companies and long-term partners who can benefit from its logistical services. The growing cross-border trade between Mexico and the United States presents a tremendous opportunity for Jaguar to capitalize on strong tailwinds in the industry.

Carlos Treistman, General Counsel of Luminus and newly appointed General Counsel of Jaguar, emphasized the significance of the investment, stating, "This investment alongside our Gateway partners is a tremendous opportunity to capitalize on strong tailwinds in cross-border trade while tapping into a large network of industrial companies who want a long-term partner to serve their logistical needs."

The existing management team at Jaguar will continue in their present roles, ensuring a seamless transition and continuity of operations. The company will remain headquartered in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico, leveraging its strategically located facilities, including terminals in Monterrey, Nuevo Laredo, San Luis Potosi, Mexico City, and Guadalajara.

With capacity for over 550 assets on 20 acres at its Monterrey terminal and over 850 assets on 30 acres at its Nuevo Laredo terminal, Jaguar is well-equipped to handle the growing demand for cross-border transportation. These terminals boast a full suite of ancillary services for customer freight and full-service maintenance shops.

The acquisition of Jaguar by Luminus Management, Lilium Group, and Gateway Transport is expected to bring about significant growth and development for the company. The consortium's commitment to investing in Jaguar's people, rolling stock, and facilities will enable the company to offer an unrivaled suite of logistical solutions to customers in the United States and Mexico.

As Jaguar Transportation sets its sights on expansion and further strengthening its position in the market, the industry can expect a new era of growth and innovation in North American logistics.
