Why is nearshoring a great opportunity for Mexico?

An economic analyst explains why nearshoring represents a historic window for Mexico's economic development.

The world is changing its trade routes, and Mexico is in a privileged geographic and strategic position. The "nearshoring" phenomenon—the tendency of companies to move their production to countries closer to their final markets—is not just a buzzword; it is the economic opportunity of a generation for our country.

The pandemic, geopolitical tensions (especially between the US and China), and the need for more resilient supply chains have accelerated this trend.

Advantages of Mexico:

• * Proximity to the US: The largest market in the world.
• * USMCA: Preferential trade framework.
• * Labor: Qualified and competitive.
• * Industrial Experience: Developed manufacturing base.

The Challenge: To fully capitalize on this opportunity, Mexico must invest in infrastructure (energy, logistics, water), strengthen the rule of law, guarantee security, and invest in technical education. We cannot let this train pass us by. Now is the time to act decisively.
