Frequently Asked Questions

Mexico offers compelling advantages for industrial occupiers and investors: proximity to U.S. markets, competitive labor costs, robust manufacturing infrastructure, and favorable trade agreements. The USMCA provides preferential access to North American markets, while programs like IMMEX offer tax advantages for export-oriented manufacturers. Additionally, Mexico's diverse industrial base and skilled workforce make it an attractive nearshoring destination.

Industrial leases in Mexico involve specific tax considerations including IVA (value-added tax), withholding requirements, and CFDI (digital invoice) compliance. Foreign companies must understand transfer pricing rules, permanent establishment implications, and maquiladora program requirements. We guide clients through these complexities while structuring leases that optimize tax efficiency and regulatory compliance.

Mexico's industrial markets each offer distinct advantages. Mexico City provides access to the country's largest consumer market but faces land constraints. Monterrey offers strong manufacturing infrastructure and proximity to Texas markets. Tijuana provides unmatched access to Southern California. The Bajío region (Guanajuato, Querétaro, Aguascalientes) combines automotive expertise with central location. We analyze each market's specific dynamics to match client requirements with optimal locations.

Nearshoring drives sustained demand across Mexico's industrial markets, particularly in sectors like automotive, electronics, and textiles. Companies relocating from Asia seek facilities that combine cost efficiency with supply chain proximity. This trend supports both build-to-suit development and speculative construction, while driving rental growth in established industrial markets. We help clients capitalize on nearshoring opportunities while managing associated risks.

Foreign investment in Mexican industrial real estate requires understanding of ownership restrictions, financing options, and regulatory compliance requirements. While most industrial properties can be owned directly, border and coastal restrictions may apply. Currency hedging, tax structuring, and local partnership considerations all impact investment returns. We provide comprehensive guidance on structuring investments that maximize returns while ensuring regulatory compliance.
