Building on this success, Nuvocargo’s carrier platform helps carriers get paid faster, save time on billing, and reduce friction from multiple touchpoints and data sources, all from a single, centralized and easy-to-use source.

“After talking in depth with our carriers, we discovered that the industry’s existing billing processes were a major point of inefficiency in their operation, leading to payment delays,” said Anaid Chacón, Product Manager at Nuvocargo. “Nuvocargo’s carrier platform tracks all invoices and load details in one place, helping carriers streamline billing. On average, carriers who have adopted this solution see a time saving of 1-3 hours per day, giving them more time to grow their business.

Available in English and Spanish, Nuvocargo’s carrier platform offers carriers a single place to:

  • Download invoices, surcharges and proof of delivery
  • Review all the information needed to issue an invoice and bill of lading supplement to comply with tax regulations in Mexico and the United States.

Jonathan is the perfect person to lead this effort – his experience in startups and freight will undoubtedly give us an advantage as we develop Nuvocargo for exponential growth and scale.

“The trade lane between the United States and Mexico is one of the most important in the world, but it has many fragmented and outdated processes,” Rojas said. “Nuvocargo’s technology is transforming the flow of goods between the two countries, and our leadership team is made up of a unique mix of high-calibre experts from different industries and start-ups who are focused on driving the innovation in this space. It was this combination that attracted me to the business.
