Electronics Manufacturing

Manufacturing electronics products competitively and accurately is difficult when outsourcing. Tecma’s Shelter Services keep you in control of production, provide dramatic cost savings, and simplify the process.

Mexico gives electronics leaders the edge to succeed

With a strong and diverse electronics manufacturing services (EMS) industry, Mexico is the strategic choice for leading OEMs and ODMs. Electronics manufacturing in Mexico provides industry leaders like Sony, Samsung, and GoPro a skilled labor pool, duty-free access to the US and over 40 other international markets, and strong intellectual property (IP) protections.

Proximity to the US consumer electronics market further reduces lead time, providing yet another competitive advantage.

Mexico’s advantages for the electronics industry

Skilled Electronics Workforce

Universities and technical schools partner closely with the electronics manufacturing industry to provide a steady stream of skilled labor. Each year, schools churn out approximately 114,000 engineers, a large segment of which are electrical engineers.
Ironclad IP Protections

Electronics suppliers and manufacturers don’t have to worry about proprietary technologies or intellectual property problems. Electronics manufacturing in Mexico is growing due to legislative help from the Mexican government, including the signing of 28 IPPAs (Investment Promotion and Protection Agreements).
Free Trade Access

As a member of the USMCA and signatory to over 40 free trade agreements, Mexico offers electronics exporters duty-free access around the globe. This advantage has made Mexico the eighth largest electronics exporter in the world and second-largest exporter to the US.
A Growing Hub

In the previous decade, electronics exports from Mexico grew 73%, with 700+ manufacturing factories there currently. Across the country and especially concentrated along US border regions like Tijuana, where Tecma is active, electronics manufacturing in Mexico is firmly established and growing.
US Neighbor

The US is the world’s largest consumer of electronics devices. Transporting electronics parts and products across the border takes only days, not weeks or months. Shelter factories are only a short trip from US offices, often in the same time zone.
Lowest Cost

With skilled labor costs around $2.50 an hour and lower materials costs, Mexico has the lowest component manufacturing costs of any country in the industry. Top-Tier PCB manufacturing and manufacturers of other devices leverage Mexico’s savings to keep costs to a minimum.

¿Qué es exactamente un «refugio mexicano para fabricantes»?

Por ejemplo:

Quizás tengas una sólida operación de fabricación en EE. UU., pero quieras trasladar la producción a México para reducir costes. Abrir una fábrica en un país extranjero conlleva numerosas complejidades burocráticas, responsabilidades y dificultades logísticas.

Un «shelter» es una estructura jurídica ya establecida en México en cuyo marco puedes operar como una división. Esto te permite centrarte únicamente en las funciones principales, mientras que la empresa «shelter» se encarga de todo, desde el cumplimiento de las obligaciones fiscales hasta las importaciones y exportaciones, pasando por la contabilidad y los recursos humanos.
