Company Background

About Estafeta

Estafeta has been part of Mexico’s logistics industry since 1979, when it became the first company in the country to offer door-to-door courier and parcel services.

Today, Estafeta is a logistics integrator connecting businesses and people across Mexico and international markets. Its network reaches 95% of the Mexican population and connects with partners in more than 220 countries and territories.

Behind that network are 128 distribution centers, 4 logistics hubs, and 13,000 collaborators. For Estafeta’s international operations, this scale makes accurate data, fast updates, reporting, and team coordination essential.

The Challenge

Finding Software Easy Enough for Daily Use, Strong Enough for Freight Operations

As Estafeta was setting up its freight forwarding operations, the team needed software that could make the work easier, not add more complexity. At the same time, the software had to support the serious side of freight operations: shipments, billing, administration, reporting, real-time updates, centralized data, and customer communication. The challenge was finding one solution that could do both.

The Solution: A System Built for Daily Freight Work

Simple for Users, Strong for Operations

Estafeta needed software that could support the team without slowing them down. Logitude fit that need because it was easy to use, simple to adopt, and strong enough to manage daily freight forwarding work. For Estafeta, this balance mattered. The software had to support operations, billing, administration, shipment control, reporting, and customer updates from one connected place.

We chose Logitude, because it is the most user-friendly software we tried. It’s not necessary to memorize codes. It allows us to administrate properly. Operations, billing and administration of all shipments.

— Paola Castro, Logitude Superuser, Estafeta.

This gave Estafeta a practical way to manage freight operations with more structure, visibility, and control.

Key Benefits and Features Experienced

1. Easier Adoption for Daily Users

One of the first benefits Estafeta noticed was how easy Logitude was for users. The team did not need to memorize codes or follow heavy steps to manage daily work. This made it easier for users to update information, trust the system, and make Logitude part of their daily workflow.

2. Real-Time Visibility Across the Team

Freight operations depend on fast and accurate updates. With Logitude, Estafeta can keep shipment information updated in real time. This gives the team better visibility, helps users work from the same information, and makes shipment follow-up easier to manage.

3. Better Control Over Operations, Billing, and Shipments

Estafeta uses Logitude to manage the operational and administrative sides of freight forwarding together. Instead of separating shipment data, billing, administration, and follow-up across different places, the team can manage them in one system. This gives Estafeta better control over daily work and makes shipment information easier to follow.

4. Faster Reports and Better Decisions

Reporting was another important benefit for Estafeta. When information is scattered, reports take time. With Logitude, shipment data is easier to access, making reports and statistics faster to generate.

Logitude integrates information easily and it’s faster to generate reports and statistics.

— Paola Castro, Logitude Superuser, Estafeta.

For Estafeta, faster reporting means less time collecting information and more time using it to manage the operation.

5. Centralized Operational Data

Freight information can easily get lost across emails, documents, computers, and personal files. Logitude helps Estafeta keep operational data in one place. This makes shipment information easier to find, easier to update, and easier to use across teams.

8. Flexibility for Local Requirements in Mexico

Local requirements were also part of Estafeta’s daily reality. One example was the Bill of Lading Complement requested by the Mexican government. Estafeta needed the software to support this requirement, and Logitude responded with the speed needed.

So, Logitude took on the task of implementing it with the same agility that was required.

— Yamel Muñoz, Customer Service Coordinator, Estafeta.

For Estafeta, this showed that Logitude could support both daily operations and Mexico-specific requirements.
