The CJNG (Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación) and the Sinaloa Cartel are two of Mexico's most powerful and violent drug trafficking organizations. Both cartels have developed sophisticated methods for sourcing chemicals used in the production of synthetic narcotics, primarily methamphetamine and fentanyl, from China. Here's a summary of how they operate:
  1. Direct Procurement:
    • Both cartels purchase precursor chemicals directly from Chinese manufacturers. These chemicals are often legal and used in various legitimate industries, making them easier to acquire without raising immediate suspicions.
  2. Front Companies and Brokers:
    • The cartels set up front companies and use brokers to place orders with Chinese chemical companies. These intermediaries help mask the true purpose of the shipments and the ultimate buyers, making it difficult for authorities to track the transactions.
  3. Shipping Routes and Methods:
    • Chemicals are shipped from China to Mexico using various methods to evade detection, including mislabeling shipments and using false documentation. The shipments often pass through multiple countries and ports to complicate tracking efforts.
    • Common routes include shipping through the United States, other Latin American countries, and even directly to Mexican ports.
  4. Corruption and Bribery:
    • Both cartels leverage corruption and bribery to facilitate the smooth importation of chemicals. They bribe customs officials, port authorities, and other relevant personnel to overlook or assist in the transportation of these chemicals.
  5. Partnerships and Networks:
    • The cartels maintain extensive networks of contacts within China and other intermediary countries. These networks include individuals who specialize in procurement, logistics, and financial transactions necessary for the continuous supply of chemicals.
  6. Adaptation and Innovation:
    • To evade law enforcement and regulatory crackdowns, the cartels constantly adapt their methods. This includes changing shipping routes, altering chemical compositions to use less regulated substances, and employing sophisticated smuggling techniques.
