Latin America’s industrial sector faces significant social, political, and economic challenges. The region is experiencing a "plural crisis" with social and political unrest coupled with economic uncertainty. However, these challenges are also opening doors to strategic investments, particularly for those who remain resilient.
The industrial and logistics sector has experienced accelerated changes since the COVID-19 pandemic, driven by disruptions in global supply chains, increasing transportation costs, and changing consumer behaviors.
Nearshoring has become a major trend, particularly in Mexico, with many US-based companies relocating their production and distribution facilities closer to home to reduce dependence on Asian supply chains as a direct response to issues faced during the pandemic, such as delayed shipments and rising shipping costs.
The integration of Latin American markets into global supply chains is expected to deepen, supported by their strategic position and global shifting trade dynamics. GRI Club members and high-level sector leaders came together over two days to seize the wave of opportunities that this context brings at GRI Industrial & Logistics GRI Latin America 2024.
The in-depth market insights shared during discussions are presented in GRI Club’s latest report, Industrial & Logistics | Latin American Panorama, addressing capital flows, risk management, urban logistics, technological integration, tenant demands, emerging sectors, and more.
