Cost Savings of E-Commerce Fulfillment Centers in Mexico

The world is changing. A rising number of consumers want goods delivered straight to their door for the sake of convenience, health, and safety. It’s important that e-commerce fulfillment centers are prepared to meet this rising demand in a cost-effective way. Through customizable logistics solutions, e-commerce businesses benefit from competitive rates, efficient delivery times, and consistent quality by moving their operations to Mexico.

We’re With You Every Step of the Way

Minimize Costs

Through the U.S. Section 321 Program, U.S. companies can ship finished goods from China or other foreign countries to Mexico before exporting to the U.S. to save on warehouse facility and labor costs and ship approved products with a retail sales value of $800 or less to the U.S. tax-free.

Expedite Logistics Setup

Working with a 3PL logistics company helps to expedite operational setup. Our sister company, Iron Logistics, already has the warehouses, permits, and workforce in place to create a customized solution for inventory and shipping needs for companies transporting medium- to high-volume goods, such as electronics, furniture, and other consumer goods and luxury products.

Benefit from Shelter Services

Another option for creating an e-commerce fulfillment center business model is working with a shelter services company. With legal, accounting, HR, and customs representatives already in place, as well as permits required as part of the IMMEX maquiladora program, shelter services help U.S. companies start and maintain logistics efficiently and effectively.

Adapt to Rising Demands

Companies with e-commerce fulfillment centers must be ready to adapt to quickly changing government mandates and consumer needs. Shifting warehousing and supply chain needs to Mexico is beneficial on several levels. It provides a closer proximity than China, while saving on costs, and benefiting from North American trade deals.

Ensure Customer Satisfaction

U.S. businesses can place their confidence in our history of excellence and customer satisfaction with inventory accuracy, fill rates, and on-time delivery when working with medium- to large-size inventory. Working with a 3PL logistics or shelter services company in Mexico that’s already familiar with the process can help the transition go more smoothly.

CASE STUDY

Natural Disaster Doesn’t Stop IVEMSA

Following a massive earthquake in Baja California that knocked out infrastructure and shut down many businesses, the IVEMSA customs department team met to find a solution for a client that needed to get a crucial shipment across the border the next day. IVEMSA was the only company that used U.S. customs services that day and avoided delays and service interruptions.

"They provided an in-depth analysis and made sure that we were aware of all the potential issues, while openly sharing their costs. This was in direct contrast to the other companies we talked to who offered us pre-packaged solutions with a 'take it or leave it' attitude."

Bill Jordan, Shop Manager, Mexicali of Allied Tool & Die

"After an objective evaluation, IVEMSA was simply the best value, and not only is IVEMSA well established and connected, we were also very impressed with the professionalism and transparency with which they do business."

Loren Engle, General Manager, GKN Aerospace

"We realized that with IVEMSA we would be dealing with not only a highly experienced company, but also with a professional and honest group who reflects our own values and emphasis on integrity."
