DETAILED INTEGRATED SUMMARY ON NEARSHORING IN
MEXICO
Nearshoring, as a business strategy, has gained significant relevance in
recent years, particularly in the context of global trade tensions, such as
those between the United States and China. This approach involves
relocating production and operational processes to countries closer to the
primary market, offering benefits in terms of cost reduction, supply chain
improvements, and increased operational efficiency. Mexico has emerged
as a preferred destination for nearshoring due to its geographical proximity
to the United States, favorable regulatory and commercial frameworks,
and competitive labor costs.
One of the most crucial elements for the success of nearshoring in Mexico
is infrastructure. The quality and availability of infrastructure, such as roads,
ports, and telecommunications, are essential to ensuring supply chain
efficiency. Despite the advantages of its strategic location, Mexico faces
significant challenges in this area. The need to modernize and expand its
infrastructure is pressing, especially if the country aims to fully capitalize
on the opportunities presented by nearshoring.
