Overview

• An electronic dispatch failure that began on Oct. 7 disrupted fuel sales across Cancún, producing long lines and delays for motorists, public transport and patrols.
• Coparmex said roughly 30% to 40% of stations were affected and estimated losses above 25 million pesos per day, warning total damage could exceed 80 million if problems dragged on.
• By Thursday, Mayor Ana Patricia Peralta reported only five stations still had issues, and the Quintana Roo government said service was 96% restored.
• Governor Mara Lezama said fuel supply is guaranteed, citing a temporary loading‑system problem that created confusion over a presumed shortage.
• The underlying cause has not been confirmed, as some station employees pointed to a recent software change and Coparmex urged Pemex, SENER and local authorities to stabilize the digital system and provide clear, timely updates.
