Local Mexico Aggregate Seller Expands His Business to the US Market with APY4 Mobile Crushers

When local Mexican aggregate seller Mr. Arturo spotted a promising opportunity in the US market but faced the challenge of unfamiliar import procedures, how did AIMIX help him step into the overseas market? Discover how his journey from local aggregate supplier to successful cross-border exporter.​

Discovering a Cross-Border Business Opportunity

Mr.Arturo, a successful Mexican businessman engaged in real estate and aggregate sales, faced a common challenge in his local market – saturation. While the Mexican market had limited growth potential, he identified an exceptional opportunity in the United States aggregate market where demand exceeded local supply.

The key to success? Producing high-quality aggregates in Mexico using reliable crushing equipment, then exporting them to meet American construction needs. This approach enables him to leverage lower production costs in Mexico while capitalizing on premium prices in the US market. However, his cross-border business required solving two critical challenges: sourcing suitable stone crushing equipment and navigating complex international trade procedures.

Overcoming International Trade Challenges

When approaching us about this business, “I knew the business opportunity was real,” Arturo explained, “but I had no idea how to bring in specialized crushing equipment or what requirements existed for exporting aggregates to American buyers.”

After in-depth communication with him, we understood his initial concerns as follows:

• Understanding equipment import regulations from China to Mexico
• Navigating Mexican customs procedures and documentation
• Managing cross-border equipment logistics
• Identifying all potential costs in the equipment acquisition process
• Learning the US aggregate export requirements and quality standards
• Ensuring the final products produced by the equipment could handle American aggregate specifications
