He will focus on expanding TDS’s partnerships with the region’s 2,500 registered bus operators, helping these companies grow through advanced customer service, efficient operations, and data-driven insights.

Over the past decade, TDS has built a reputation as North America’s largest platform for ticketing, reservations, and dynamic pricing solutions, empowering ground transportation providers to enhance their operations. With this expansion, TDS will bring cutting-edge tools such as demand-based routing, interline reservations, real-time tracking and management, and machine learning frameworks to Mexico and Latin America, all designed to maximize ROI and unlock new revenue streams.

“TDS has established itself as a leading platform for bus carriers across North America. Now, we are excited to extend our reach to support bus operators in Mexico and beyond,” said Terry Cordell, TDS’s CEO. He emphasized that these tools will allow Latin American carriers to remain competitive and adapt to evolving market demands.

Moreno enthusiastically said, “I am thrilled to join TDS and lead this expansion. Our commitment is to advance the bus transportation industry in Latin America with innovative technology, ensuring that our partners remain resilient and successful in the face of new challenges.”
