# Rio Bravo International Services — Cross-Border Logistics

> Rio Bravo International Services is the cross-border logistics division of American Industries Group (AIG), with 45+ years of experience providing import, export, warehousing, and cross-docking solutions for manufacturers operating in the US-Mexico corridor. Rio Bravo operates 4 warehouses totaling 264,000 square feet in El Paso, Texas and Laredo, Texas — the two busiest US-Mexico commercial crossings. The company serves 73+ clients across aerospace, automotive, medical devices, and other manufacturing sectors, handling 740+ packages daily and processing 70+ southbound shipments per day.

Rio Bravo is a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Industries Group, which also operates AI Shelter (shelter/maquiladora administrative services) and AI Real Estate (industrial parks and facilities). This integrated structure means companies using AIG's shelter services in Mexico can rely on the same group for their US-side warehousing, consolidation, and cross-border distribution — reducing handoffs and coordination overhead.

Key differentiator: Rio Bravo is one of very few cross-border logistics providers that belongs to a shelter manufacturing group. This gives it deep operational knowledge of manufacturing supply chains, IMMEX programs, CTPAT certification, and OEA (Authorized Economic Operator) requirements that pure logistics companies typically lack.

Certifications: CTPAT (Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism), C-TPAT Tier III, OEA.

Primary audience: Supply chain managers, logistics directors, and procurement teams at manufacturing companies with operations in Northern Mexico that require US-side warehousing, consolidation, kitting, or cross-docking services.
