Nearshoring in Mexico drives real estate crowdfunding

In Apodaca, Nuevo Leon, the industrial real estate submarket operates at an occupancy rate of between 96% and 97%. In Aguascalientes, available space is practically nonexistent. In Tlalnepantla, State of Mexico, industrial rents average US$12.50 per square meter per month, and the waiting list of companies looking to set up shop continues to grow.

Nearshoring has not only reshaped global supply chains but has also filled warehouses in the main corridors, leaving the country facing a challenge that is no longer one of demand but of financing to build what is still missing.

Under the framework of the Fintech Law, overseen by the CNBV, Banxico, and the SHCP, these platforms connect the savings of individuals and SMEs with logistics and industrial infrastructure projects.

Crowdfunding provides a growing share of that capital in areas where banks do not operate and institutional funds do not reach.
