The industrial demand of San Luis Potosí (SLP) increased during 2021, driven by the expansion of automotive companies, Solili reported in a statement.

The portal detailed that the assemblers increased their operations during 4Q2021, requiring more industrial space.

In addition, SLP registered a gross demand of 52 thousand square meters, of which 44 thousand were custom-made projects.

At the end of 4Q2021, the construction of new custom-made projects for the automotive sector was also completed, highlighting the properties of the companies Continental, Mayco, Bend All, among others.

Likewise, more than half of the ships under construction are related to or are directly built for companies in this same sector.

Solili assessed that the automotive sector was one of the most affected by the sharp contraction in demand that occurred in 2020.

The transit of multiple problems in global supply chains that limited the shipment of manufactures also had a negative influence.

Another impact factor are the changes that are taking place as a result of the current demand that electric cars bring, displacing fuels.

Therefore, having reached a cumulative demand at the end of the year that just ended close to 229 thousand square meters, is synonymous with the efforts of businessmen and developers who bet on this important market in the lowlands.
