Shelter Manufacturing in Mexico

One of the best ways to get started in offshoring or nearshoring in Mexico is to work through a Shelter. This allows you to concentrate on your product while we arrange the logistics and take on the liabilities.

Shelter Manufacturing in Mexico

If you started your business yourself, you remember what was required to legally establish your company and hire and pay your employees, even before you focused on your product. And while offshoring product to Mexico might seem attractive, the process of setting up a foreign entity in a country with different tax, HR, and regulatory requirements can be very intimidating, if not exhausting.

First off, let our infrastructure and experience make this move a reality for you. We can help on each step along the way, depending on which path you decide to take. On this page and it’s accompanying  two links, we talk about three different options which are available to you.

First, is the shelter. As we explain below, the shelter allows you to control the technical aspect, while we provide administrative support. This is a good choice for a company with a good technical infrastructure and complicated  processes, which have a proven history of being under control.

Second, is contract manufacturing, where you instead rely on our manufacturing expertise. After the initial quoting and parts approval process, you simply place the order and pay a fixed price for each piece delivered.

Lastly, services, is the best of all worlds – you pick which type of support you want and which you want to supply on your own.

The Shelter Approach

In very general terms, when you use the Shelter approach, you use your equipment, your raw materials, and you train and supervise the direct work force. A company like North American Operations Consulting worries about the rest.
