TraPAPE

TraPAPE transforms Mexico's cargo transportation by enhancing efficiency and improving the quality of life for truck drivers through its innovative digital platform

In Mexico, the cargo trucking sector 35% of trucks return empty after delivering shipments, leading to inefficiencies and increased pollution. This situation is made more challenging by a highly competitive and informal market, where truck drivers face risks on the road and sometimes resort to extreme measures to stay awake and meet deadlines.

TraPAPE, a social enterprise based in Mexico, aims to improve quality of life of truck drivers by creating a solution that streamlines and enhances the cargo transportation process. Similar to the renowned ride-sharing platform, Uber, TraPAPE connects truck drivers with shippers and offers a seamless and secure method for booking loads, ensuring fair and reliable payments.

TraPAPE's platform provides numerous benefits for both clients and truck drivers. For companies seeking cargo transportation services, it eliminates intermediaries, reduces logistics costs, and centralises documentation for better administration and transparency.

For truck drivers, it offers direct access to profitable trips, a streamlined billing system, and constant communication with clients through stage-by-stage monitoring and empowers truck drivers to find profitable trips from any location, reducing the number of empty return trips and thus minimising their ecological footprint. This not only increases efficiency but also mitigates the risks associated with informal practices.

By addressing the core issues of empty miles and inefficient logistics, TraPAPE not only enhances the operational efficiency of the cargo transportation sector but also contributes to a greener environment and better working conditions for truck drivers.
