Founded in 1990 by Fernando Paez, Olympic Transport has become a pivotal player in cross-border logistics. Headquartered in Monterrey, Mexico, with strategic terminals in Nuevo Laredo, Monclova, Queretaro, Laredo, and San Antonio, Texas, the company provides regulatory-compliant services across North America. Their journey to success began with Paez's first truck purchase in San Antonio from a Freightliner dealership, which laid the foundation for an  operation known for its efficient, straightforward cross-border transport solutions.

"Joining the TCA is a proud moment for all of us at Olympic Transport. This partnership signifies our commitment to enhancing the efficiency and safety of North America's freight transportation network,” said Olympic Transport CEO Fernando Paez. “We look forward to contributing to and benefiting from TCA's extensive resources and advocacy efforts, further enabling our growth and operational excellence across borders."
