A few key factors make Mexico competitive relative to China and to North America (USA and Canada). The first and most important competitive factor is Mexico’s labor costs – low cost, high quality. Labor costs, especially direct labor costs are on par with and in many cases are cheaper than in China. However, labor costs vary significantly from region to region in Mexico, as do the availability of specific skill-sets for different industries. For indirect labor and for higher skill-sets, Mexico’s educational system graduates excellent engineers and produces very good technical expertise. Prototyping is also a fast-growing industry.

In addition to labor, many raw materials and outsourced processes for different industries are also very competitive in Mexico.

Other factors which make Mexico the ideal destination to outsource your production include:

  • Lead-times for shipments of final goods. From Mexico, lead-times can be less than a week compared to 6-8 weeks from China.
  • Also, the USMCA (formally NAFTA) can be leveraged to save on import duties and tariffs.
  • Production can be much closer to North American customers.
  • Oversight and quality control of contracted production is much more efficient.
  • The quality of Mexico’s manufactured good are world-class as is its infrastructure.

While Mexico is a global manufacturing powerhouse, its Contract Manufacturing sector is still largely unknown and differs considerably from China. The vast majority of potential contract manufacturing partners are not very public facing. They manage close relationships and are not do not typically have commercial teams who respond to RFQ’s and often there is a language barrier to such replies. While the production is largely destined for export, the business culture is quite local. Finding a suitable manufacturing partner is an “insider’s game” dependent on relationships as well as on local and sector knowledge. Getting into the market can take considerable effort, time and cost and likely would be challenging for an outsider. Working with a good and trusted partner can significantly improve your business’s competitiveness.
