Mercury Express
A Subsidiary of Ares Macrotechnology
Mercury Express, a subsidiary of Ares Macrotechnology, specializes in global shipping. Ares being a AA Megacorporation its transports are extraterritorial. This means that they are not scrutinized as hard as other shipping companies that go through the Port of Houston. This being the case many smugglers would like to get their claws into someone who works at Mercury Express, especially supervisors who work at the Port of Houston itself. Slapping on an Ares Express shipping label and doctoring up a manifest are perfect ways of getting contraband through the port.
Mercury Express has a large office in Downtown Houston and field offices at the Port of Houston.

--The Port of Houston is the largest Container Port along the Gulf Coast and Mercury Express ships about 70% of those containers....it makes you wonder what's in them all....that's a lot of tonnage going through virtually unchecked....

--A friend of a friend shipped some illicit cargo through there with a home brewed Mercury Express sticker on the container.....He said that it made it through with no problem....the hairy bit was getting it passed Knight Errant....they are all over that port.
