Guadalajara, Jalisco. In the Jalisco real estate sector, the development of last-mile industrial parks has grown exponentially in recent years, mainly as a result of the pandemic.
Due to its geographical location and the consolidation of the pharmaceutical, automotive, technological and logistics clusters, in the Guadalajara metropolitan area, made up of nine municipalities, the last mille industrial park model has turned out to be a phenomenon, Luis Montes De Oca, founding partner of Grupo Industrial Elite.
He said that in the last five years the demand for these properties exceeds 300,000 square meters per year and more than 70% of that area corresponds to foreign companies.
The last mile industrial parks have as their main characteristic their strategic location for delivery to the final consumer and have small warehouses from 1,000 square meters.
Montes De Oca said that the main players in different industries have their large distribution centers or transformation or assembly establishments, either in the metropolitan area of Guadalajara or in nearby points such as the Bajío automotive corridor.
“Mexico’s door to Asia is the Port of Manzanillo and Colima does not have the infrastructure. We are two and a half hours away and the companies are seeing Guadalajara, Jalisco as a very important point to distribute their products throughout Mexico. We are also two and a half hours from Bajío, the most important automotive corridor in the country”, explained Sergio O’Farrill, another of the company’s founding partners.

Only this group currently has parks of these characteristics in the municipalities of Zapopan, Tlajomulco, Tlaquepaque and Tonalá, and this 2022 will invest 900 million pesos in three more developments that will be available from October.

Although most of the companies correspond to the logistics sector, the last-mile parks of this corporation house companies from other sectors such as packaging, veterinary, medical products and the furniture industry, since the company manages land uses for light industry in the municipalities. of low impact and not exclusively for storage and distribution.
