Logistics & transportation
Dry freight, refrigerated, container and last-mile fleets running on CA-9, CA-2 and the corridors to the northern Mexican border. The real challenges here are cargo theft on stretches like Escuintla-Puerto Quetzal, fuel siphoning, customs delays at El Florido and El Carmen, and pressure from shippers for digital proof of delivery. GSecurity unifies GPS, AI video, e-seal and POD on a single platform with local SLA.
