Expertise and speed: Delivering masks amid Covid-19
Origin
Shanghai, China
Destination

Project Challenges
Importing face masks from China to Mexico amid Covid-19 pandemic required Vector to work closely together with trading authorities to comply with new regulations and unforeseen logistics challenges.
Outcome
Leveraging on Vector’s speed, logistics experience and expertise in China we managed to quickly overcome logistics roadblocks such as cargo flights overbooking, significant delays and last-minute changes in regulations.
By working together with [our clients and] the local import/export authorities, the Vector team proudly delivered over 1 million face masks in just 3 weeks.
To date, this is one of the most fulfilling and encouraging achievements that makes us feel proud and an active member of our local communities.
