Mexico’s industrial real estate market is benefiting from the need for more resilient supply chains. PGIM’s Enrique Lavín, DHL’s Guillermo Espinosa Armendáriz and CBRE’s Yadira Torres-Romero explain the advantages and challenges of nearshoring.


Insights to Share:

 

  • Nearshoring is spurring industrial activity beyond Mexico’s border cities as companies seek inland nearshoring opportunities.
  • The lower cost and availability of labor explains why companies have relocated or expanded manufacturing operations in Mexico.
  • The cost of capital, even for transactions denominated in U.S. dollars, is lower than in the U.S.
