A.P. Moller – Maersk has outlined the roadmap for physical infrastructure development and expansion in Mexico, a strategy that has gained momentum with the industrial nearshoring trend, primarily due to the demand for maritime services in import traffic to Mexico. For example, it plans to open more fulfillment centers for warehousing and distribution operations.
Currently, Maersk’s footprint covers more than 150,000 m2 throughout Mexico, with warehouses located in Mexico City, Tijuana, and Cuautitlán, and depots near the ports of Lázaro Cárdenas and Manzanillo, with expansion plans in Guadalajara and Monterrey, and expanding its land capabilities, with the aim of offering customers solutions for Mexico-United States cross-border trade.
