Organized crime in Mexico today includes highly sophisticated groups who have effectively penetrated the supply chains of Mexico's burgeoning exports. They have extorted their way into ownership of the agri-food sector and they regularly hijack the trucking convoys of export manufacturers — more than 50 trucks per day on average.
