Nearshoring is reshaping global manufacturing and supply chains as companies seek to reduce risk, shorten transit times, and improve resilience. Mexico has emerged as a primary beneficiary of this shift due to its proximity to the United States, trade agreements, and growing industrial base.

Within the Yucatán Peninsula, nearshoring activity is accelerating as infrastructure investment and government incentives improve the region’s competitiveness. This shift is creating sustained demand for industrial facilities that can support logistics, storage, and operational needs.

Key Signals

• Nearshoring activity: 310 private nearshoring investment projects across the Yucatán Peninsula

• Foreign direct investment: $535.9 million in FDI recorded in 2022

• Government incentives: Immediate deductions on new fixed assets ranging from 59% to 89%

• Policy horizon: Incentive programs in place through October 2030

• Target sectors: Technology, research, and development-focused industries

For RIIP, nearshoring represents a durable demand driver rather than a short-term trend. Industrial tenants relocating or expanding operations require reliable, purpose-built infrastructure to support their supply chains.

By developing modern industrial assets aligned with this shift, RIIP is positioned to serve long-term operational demand in an undersupplied market.

Nearshoring activity increases demand for facilities that support inbound materials, outbound distribution, and ongoing operations. These needs translate directly into demand for warehouses, logistics hubs, and light industrial space.

As companies commit capital and operations to the region, industrial assets benefit from longer lease terms and more stable tenant profiles.
