With the debut episode of our Trucking Matters Borderless Coverage Series, Reliance Partners welcomes Werner Enterprises Chairman and CEO Derek Leathers to discuss a host of topics related to the company’s cross-border operations while exploring the evolution of trade with Mexico since the days of NAFTA. Mark Vickers, an Executive Vice President and the Head of International Logistics at Reliance Partners, is your host of the Borderless Coverage Series. Mark’s conversation with Derek takes us back to the early days of Derek’s career and how he joined Werner when the company was beginning to build its cross-border operation.

As you’ll hear, Mark and Derek discuss the changes that have taken place with US-Mexico trade from NAFTA through USMCA, including how Werner has continued to adapt with the market. Mark also gets Derek’s perspective on the key topics that have been in the news in recent months, including English Language Proficiency requirements, B1 Drivers and Non-Domicled CDL holders. Derek offers a collection of valuable insights throughout the conversation while noting Werner’s continued commitment to cross-border operations and the importance of Mexico as a trading partner with the United States.
