During Esquivel's 38-year career in logistics, he worked for two shipping lines in South Florida and established his first company, Universal Freightways, in the Doral area in 1991. The company employed over 75 people who handled freight transportation for many multinational and local companies from the United States to Latin America. In 1997, Universal Freightways was recognized as one of the top 10 freight transportation companies by cargo volume to South America. The company had offices in Doral, New Jersey, Houston, the Dominican Republic, and all major cities in Venezuela. In 2001, due to the deregulation of the maritime industry and a significant number of mergers and acquisitions among his clients, he decided to sell to one of his main competitors. Throughout his career, Esquivel has developed hundreds of job opportunities in multiple organizations.
As a senior executive in logistics, he has led teams of administrators, analysts, and information managers, providing administrative and distribution logistics support to organizations of all sizes. Currently, he owns Port Logistics Solutions Corporation, a global logistics services provider serving over 165 countries.
