Nearshoring To Mexico. An Alternative To China? [Podcast]

Have you considered Mexico as an alternative to China for your manufacturing?

Dan Harris at China Law Blog recently wrote this blog post: “Mexico is the New China” and Manufacturers are Moving There. In it he suggests why US companies, in particular, can benefit from moving some or all of their manufacturing to Mexico, and when you consider the close proximity to the USA that makes sense.

But can Mexico really provide the supply chain infrastructure that China or SE Asia does?

Listen to this episode of the podcast where we explore Mexico’s pros and cons, nearshoring, and some tips for assessing your supply chain’s risks and making a move.
