2026 STATE OF THE NORTH AMERICAN SUPPLY CHAIN
Canada and Mexico remain central to American supply chains, but cross-border execution is under greater scrutiny. Enforcement around driver qualifications and operating authority has increased, raising the stakes for noncompliant practices. CROSS-BORDER EXECUTION AND COMPLIANCE DISCIPLINE
Flexible by Design – Scalable by Demand Strategically located Averitt Distribution & Fulfillment Centers help shippers stage, transload, and reposition inventory quickly— keeping freight moving when conditions change.
SHIPPERS ARE PRIORITIZING PARTNERS THAT:
• Do not use B-1 drivers • Do not rely on noncompliant capacity • Maintain clear accountability on both sides of the border

In a constrained environment, compliance failures are harder to absorb and more expensive to correct.
Control at the Port: The Role of Asset-Based Drayage
Ports remain one of the most sensitive pressure points in international supply chains. Asset-based drayage provides control where transactional models fall short—reducing dwell, improving container turns, and maintaining visibility once freight hits the ground.
Direct control over drayage capacity enables tighter coordination with inland transportation and warehousing.
Strategic Warehousing as a Release Valve
Warehouses and distribution centers positioned near seaports and inland gateways can provide critical flexibility. These facilities allow shippers to stage, deconsolidate, transload, and reposition inventory quickly—relieving pressure when uncertainty spikes.
When integrated with drayage and transportation, they allow freight to keep moving even when conditions change.
