The area of parks and industrial zones, located in Querétaro, reports an occupation of approximately 90%; therefore, the available area is around 10%, according to estimates by the Secretariat for Sustainable Development (Sedesu). Currently there are 5,000 hectares installed in industrial zones, to which a thousand that are under development will be added, said the head of the agency, Marco Antonio del Prete Tercero.

When taking stock of the industrial capacities that Querétaro has to meet the demand that promotes the relocation of suppliers (nearshoring), he affirmed that there is availability of surface, as well as projects under development and interest in continuing to build.

The relocation of suppliers -motivated mainly by Asian companies seeking to get closer to the North American market- will be a trigger for the demand for industrial spaces. The interest of various companies to relocate their supply chains encourages both national and international developers to promote new complexes for manufacturing use.

“One of the triggers (of nearshoring) is the availability of industrial buildings. We have come to find companies that urgently need to start operations and are looking for spaces that have already been built, already enabled, so that whets the appetite of not only national but also international developers; mainly industrial investment funds come, to expand industrial spaces or to develop industrial spaces to take advantage of the wave of nearshoring”, he explained.

“Opportunity for growth we do have. Several industrial parks are in the development phase, many others are in the construction phase. A few weeks ago we inaugurated the Finsa III park, recently the first stone of an industrial area; so there is availability, there is development and there is interest in continuing to develop”, he said.

Regarding the time it will take to build areas that are under development, the head of Sedesu mentioned that it varies according to the demand for industrial buildings.
